List all combinations of 6/36 with unique 4 numbers
Errata.... I wrote:
Given the condition for full wheels ("all 6 of the drawn numbers are in
your subset"), the probability that the condition is met is COMBIN(18,6) /
COMBIN(36,6) for a subset is 18 numbers.
Similarly, for abbreviated wheels, the probability that the condition ("at
least 4 of the drawn numbers are in your subset") is met is COMBIN(18,4) /
COMBIN(36/6).
While I believe the full-wheel conditional probability is correct, I have my
doubts about the formula for the abbreviated-wheel conditional probability.
I need to give that more thought.
