A Long-Awaited Return

Combo Profile

As a digit pattern, 198 uses 3 distinct digits and a wide spread from 1 to 9.

Why Droughts Matter

Droughts do not indicate what will happen next - they simply document what has already occurred. Their value lies in measuring distribution over long horizons and identifying when a combination performs far above or below its expected appearance rate.
