48.1% of the drawn numbers were even (expected 48.6%). In 28 draws (27%) two consecutive numbers such as 12 and 13 came up together; chance expects that in 31% of draws.

On average 0.44 number from the previous draw was drawn again (expected 0.46). The longest gap of any number within the year belonged to 25, absent for 43 draws.

Numbers from the range 1–10 came up most often (131 hits), those from 31–35 least often (46). Such deviations are part of chance: they even out over many years, and none of them helps with the next draw.
