Spectasort for the 16K/48K Spectrum is a companion program to Spectadraw. It can either be used on its own to generate permutations or MERGEd on a 48K machine with Spectadraw to use its predictions.

Using a statistical method it generates 10 eight-from-10 permutations from the 14 matches considered to be the most likely draws and the 10 matches considered to be the least likely.

With any program of this kind it is anyone's guess whether the method will win more money than a pin and a blindfold. If it were so good the author would make so much money from the pools that he would not need to sell cassettes.
