Digit Groups Report
A digit group is the unordered set of digits in a combination. The report treats 1-2-3, 3-2-1, and 2-1-3 as the same group, ranking groups by drought multiplier to surface which sets of digits are most behind their expected pace.
Why It Matters
Some groups have more permutations than others — {1,2,3} can form 6 straight combinations while {1,1,7} only forms 3. That means groups with more permutations appear more often by design. The Digit Groups report accounts for this when calculating how overdue each group is.
How Stepzero Uses It
Stepzero calculates an expected gap for each group based on its permutation count relative to all possible combinations. The multiplier shows how stretched beyond that expected gap the group currently is. Groups are ranked by multiplier by default.
Example
Group {1,2,3} has 6 permutations out of 1,000 total, so its expected gap is about 167 draws. If it hasn't appeared for 350 draws, its multiplier is 2.1×.

FAQ
What does "Fresh Groups" mean?
Fresh Groups are digit groups that appeared within the last 50% of their expected gap — recently active relative to their baseline. Use this when you want to see which groups have checked in fairly recently.
