Combined Filters VZero Line Width Pick 5 The VZero Line Width (VTZ-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.
VZero (VTZ) is a different representation of the VTracs (VTX) concept with the difference that the digits start with 0 rather than 1. That simplifies the conversion drastically as the first five digits (0, 1, 2, 3 and 4) are the same in both number and VZero conversion. 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 VZero Line Width filter for a Pick 5 number here an example step by step.
Part I: Pick 5 VZero Line Width Conversion Step 1: Divide 07587 into separate digits: 07587 => 0 7 5 8 7 Step 2: Convert each digit to filter: 0 = 0 7 = 2 5 = 0 8 = 3 7 = 2 Step 3: Combine the filters to a string: 0 2 0 3 2 = 02032
Part II: Pick 5 VZero Line Width Conversion Step 1: Divide the 02032 into separate digits: 02032 => 0 2 0 3 2 Step 2: Find the highest digit: 0 2 0 3 2 => 3 Step 3: Find the lowest digit: 3 2 2 0 0 => 0 Step 4: Subtract the lowest digit from the highest: 3 - 0 = 3
