2001: The year in numbers

Cash Five 2001: all 209 draws from Jan 1, 2001 to Dec 31, 2001 with the winning numbers, by month; click a date for the prize breakdown.

Most drawn numbers that year: 19, 36, 39, 16, 12 – least drawn: 31, 38, 6.

The sum of the winning numbers averaged 86.0 (chance expectation 90.0); the highest sum of the year was 136 on Jun 8, 2001, the lowest 35 on Mar 30, 2001.

49.5% of the drawn numbers were even (expected 48.6%). In 44 draws (40%) two consecutive numbers such as 12 and 13 came up together; chance expects that in 48% of draws.

On average 0.80 number from the previous draw was drawn again (expected 0.71). The longest gap of any number within the year belonged to 31, absent for 44 draws.

Numbers from the range 11–20 came up most often (176 hits), those from 31–35 least often (67). Such deviations are part of chance: they even out over many years, and none of them helps with the next draw.
