Combined Filters Neighbors Distances Pick 4 The Neighbors Distances (NB-DST) 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.
To show you how to calculate the Neighbors Distances filter for a Pick 4 number here an example step by step.
Part I: Pick 4 Neighbors Distances Conversion Step 1: Divide 1689 into separate digits: 1689 => 1 6 8 9 Step 2: Convert each digit to filter: 1 = 1 6 = 4 8 = 5 9 = 5 Step 3: Combine the filters to a string: 1 4 5 5 = 1455
Part II: Pick 4 Neighbors Distances Conversion Step 1: Divide the number into separate digits: 1455 => 1 4 5 5 Step 2: Calculate the distance between each digit and the next (the last digit with the first): 1 to 4 = 3 4 to 5 = 1 5 to 5 = 0 5 to 1 = 4 Step 3: Combine the filters to a string: 3 1 0 4 = 3104
