Combined Filters Neighbors Line Width Pick 5 The Neighbors Line Width (NB-LW) is a so called "combined filter", a combination of a digit and a math filter. It requires two separate parts to create the filter.
Neighbors (NB) is yet another alternative to the old VTracs (VTX). Instead of combining digits by adding 5 it selects the all even digits with the next odd digit up, 0 with 1, 2 with 3 all the way to 8 with 9. It is another efficient way to combine an odd with an even digit. The Line Width is a so called "math filter". Math filters are created through calculations. The Line Width is the difference between the highest and the lowest digit of a number. To show you how to calculate the Neighbors Line Width filter for a Pick 5 number here an example step by step.
Part I: Pick 5 Neighbors Line Width Conversion Step 1: Divide 78412 into separate digits: 78412 => 7 8 4 1 2 Step 2: Convert each digit to filter: 7 = 4 8 = 5 4 = 3 1 = 1 2 = 2 Step 3: Combine the filters to a string: 4 5 3 1 2 = 45312
Part II: Pick 5 Neighbors Line Width Conversion Step 1: Divide the 45312 into separate digits: 45312 => 4 5 3 1 2 Step 2: Find the highest digit: 4 5 3 1 2 => 5 Step 3: Find the lowest digit: 5 4 3 2 1 => 1 Step 4: Subtract the lowest digit from the highest: 5 - 1 = 4
