Iowa Lottery Pick 4 Boxes Analysis
|
Boxes, or any arrangement of the digits, of the Iowa Lottery Pick 4 Game are analyzed here.
Since certain boxes are more likely to be drawn than others, the first step in the analysis would be to
group all the 10,000 Pick 4 numbers are categories based on their pattern. Then the frequencies and last
appearance of each group will be pressented.
If you are not familiar with the Iowa Pick 4 Game, or any 4-digit lottery game in general, you may start with the section on
description, play types, and how to Play 4-digit lottery games. Even if you are familiar with the
game the section about grouping and odds of 4-digit numbers can be very informative.

Introduction to Pick 4 Box Analysis
As mentioned in other pages of this web site, boxes are any arrangement of a given 4-digit
game number, represented by an ascending order of the digits. For instance, the box 0011 represents
all the six possible permutations of the four digits: 0011,1100,0101,1010,1001,0110.
In this section we shall analyze the Iowa Pick 4 boxes. The purpose of this analysis is to identify :
- the distribution in frequency of the five 4-digit box categories in the last 40, 100, 1000, and all (6706) draws,
- which Pick 4 game numbers have not been drawn in any arrangement?
- which Pick 4 boxes are the hottest (highest frequency) and which ones the coldest (low frequency)?
- which Pick 4 numbers have not been drawn even as a box for a long time now?
The analysis is performed separately for the four groups of 4-digit numbers, namely, non-repeating boxes (or 24-way boxes),
one-doubled boxes (or 12-way boxes), dual-double boxes (or 6-way boxes), and one-tripled boxes (or 4-way boxes).
The reason for a separate analysis is simply because the probability of a number winning is the highest for non-repeating boxes
followed by one-doubled, one-tripled, dual-double, and quadruples, in that order.
Note that the box representation of 9325, the latest Iowa Pick 4 number, is 2359.
You may also see the complete list of Iowa Pick 4 Boxes(Combos) for an alphanumeric ordered list.
Frequency of Iowa Pick 4 Box Categories
The following table lists the frequencies of the four box groups, plus quadruples, in the
last 40, 100, 1000, and all (6706) draws
of the Iowa Pick 4 game. Click on one of the tabs to see the actual and the
expected number of times that each group is drawn. The bar graph in the last column will help you
to visually identify if a Pick 4 group is drawn more than or less than the expected value. Since
these bars represent percentages of the analyzed draws, they will appear very close to each other
at higher number of draws. For this reason, the frequencies are shown again at the end of the bars for more clarity.

Iowa Pick 4 Frequency of Boxes (Combos) and
How long is it since a Iowa Pick 4 Box was last drawn?
The data presented in two columns below allow you to identify the most and the least frequently
drawn Iowa Pick 4 boxes as well as late boxes. The left column contains frequencies where
the numbers are arranged by their corrsponding values, the first being the number with the lowest frequency.
The column on the right contains how many draws have passed since a particular Iowa Pick 4
box was last drawn. The oldest Pick 4 boxes are to be found at the top and the newest at the bottom
of the list.
Note that BOXES THAT HAVE NOT BEEN DRAWN YET ARE NOT LISTED in the following tables.
Since Non-repeating numbers are drawn more frequently than Doubles, Dual-Doubles, and triples, the data are accordingly separated.
Use the buttons below to toggle between the four. Initially the data for Non-Repeating-digits are shown.
