Lowest Delta Total
Lowest Delta Total adds up how far each generated number lands from its drawing. Lowest Delta Total is the fastest method, and the only one whose seeds can go into the public library.
Seed Crunch is a desktop companion app for Lotto Seed that crunches through billions of seeds to discover winning patterns for any lottery game. Seed Crunch runs on Windows and Linux and works with every Lotto Seed plan.
seedcrunchseedcrunch --host 0.0.0.0Seed Crunch tests random number generator seeds and offsets by the billions and keeps the ones whose numbers line up best with the past drawings you pick. Seed Crunch scores every candidate with one of seven methods and sends the best results to your Lotto Seed account.
Lotto Seed describes every drawing as one number: where its combination falls among all the combinations the game can draw. A seed is the starting number of a random number generator, and an offset is how far into its sequence you start reading.

Pick a game, the range of past drawings to test, and one of the seven methods for comparing seeds.
Seed Crunch tests every seed and offset in your range and keeps only the best results.
Your best seeds go to the public community library on a Free or Premium plan, or stay private with you on a Premium Plus plan.
Seed Crunch offers seven methods for scoring how closely a seed's numbers match the drawings you chose. Lowest Delta Total is included with every Lotto Seed plan, and the other six methods need Premium Plus. Every result also shows its Hits: the number of jackpot drawings the seed predicted exactly.
Lowest Delta Total adds up how far each generated number lands from its drawing. Lowest Delta Total is the fastest method, and the only one whose seeds can go into the public library.
Sliding Window MAE predicts each drawing from the average of the numbers just before it, and keeps the window size that misses least. One odd drawing won't throw Sliding Window MAE off.
Window Correlation looks at the shape of the sequence rather than the exact numbers: do the seed's numbers rise and fall in the same pattern as the drawings?
Trend Direction only asks whether each step goes up or down along with the drawings, whatever the size of the move. Trend Direction is simple and very hard to fool.
Multi-Window Consensus scores the first 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 drawings and blends the results. A seed has to do well at every length to rank.
Delta Pattern compares the jump from one drawing to the next with the jump between generated numbers, so Delta Pattern measures how things change rather than the values themselves.
Holt-Winters fits a smoothed level-and-trend forecast to the seed's numbers and checks how well the forecast predicts each drawing. Holt-Winters is the most thorough method, and by far the slowest.
Most people use the Seed Crunch app window. If you would rather start Seed Crunch from a terminal, or run Seed Crunch remotely on a computer without a screen, the command line has you covered.
