Its nearest twin

Shares 4 of 5 numbers (29, 33, 38, 45) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 28 July 2016 — its closest relative in 857 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 10% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (16 January 2022): nothing carried over. Chance says 44% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (6% expected).

The longest wait in this draw

45 had not appeared for 9 draws. A number waits about 10 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.
