MIA Missing in action. This is known to have existed, and no copy has ever been found. If you own one, the archives would like to hear from you.
Discussion
Nobody has started a thread about this yet.
Remarks
"The program will run on its own in 16K, using your own predictions, or has the unique feature of being able to merge with {Specta Draw 2|Bryan S. McAlley|0011126} to provide a complete Pools Prediction package!!"
SPOT: perm generation program for Spectadraw

Memory: 16K Price: £9.95 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.
