But in the lottery it's any *combination* of 6 numbers, not a particular *permutation* which is another matter entirely.
Yes but surely there's a difference between asking for 6 numbers and asking for 6 numbers in sequential order seems to me a whole new set of oods come into play as its not random numbers your asking for ???
