Testing against known real-world popular combinations (1-2-3-4-5-6,
5-10-15-20-25-30) showed the sum-near-mean penalty scored them HIGHER
than spread-out combinations - the opposite of intended. Tight
sequential clusters produce both a strong pattern match AND an extreme
sum from the same underlying cause, so treating "extreme sum" as an
independent unpopularity signal double-counted in the wrong direction
for exactly the combinations it should penalize most.

Since draws are i.i.d., only expected value (jackpot-sharing avoidance)
is actually improvable, not hit probability. Replaces the ad-hoc "lucky
numbers" list with empirically-documented picks, adds general arithmetic-
progression detection (not just +1 consecutive pairs), and scores extreme
odd/even splits and sums higher since humans favor "balanced-looking"
combinations despite every combination being equally likely.
Raises popularity's weight in the quality score from 20% to 50%, since
AI/pattern/recency signals carry no real predictive value and recency
("overdue" numbers) risks converging with other systematic players'
picks, undermining the EV goal. Superzahl selection now uses an EV
heuristic instead of chasing historical draw frequency, which is pure
noise for an independently drawn digit.

Adds _calculate_popularity_score() which favors number combinations
unlikely to be picked by other players (numbers > 31, no consecutive
sequences, avoiding common "lucky numbers"). This doesn't improve hit
probability (lottery draws are i.i.d. random) but increases expected
value by reducing the chance of sharing a jackpot.
- New 20% weight in quality score
- New Popularity_Score column in tip CSV export

Data:
- Add missing draw 2026-05-16 (7 11 20 23 27 30 SZ:9) via GitHub archive
- Run retroactive learning for skipped 2026-01-07 draw
Generator improvements (ported from Eurojackpot):
- Add hard structural filters (sum 100-200, min 1 even + 1 odd per tip)
- Add long-term frequency prior as learner dampener (alpha=0.2)
- Fix ENSEMBLE strategy generating duplicate tips (greedy → weighted random)
- Fix Division-by-Zero edge case in set_frequency_prior
- Fix freq_alpha boundary and clip final adjusted value to [0,1]
- Prevent negative weights in random.choices (floor at 0.001)
- Use vectorized stack().value_counts() for frequency calculation
.gitignore:
- Exclude data/backups/, weekly tip CSVs, performance reports, data/data/

- Added Lottoland API (https://media.lottoland.com/api/drawings/german6aus49)
for fetching the latest Lotto 6aus49 draw
- Changed strategy to combine both APIs:
1. Lottoland API for the most current draw
2. GitHub Lotto Archive for historical data
- Fixed default data path to use /Projekte/Lotto/data
- Updated AlleLottozahlen.csv with draw from 2026-01-31
This fixes the issue where the GitHub Lotto Archive was outdated
and missing recent draws. Lottoland API provides real-time results.

- Fixed default data-dir in auto_update_and_learn.py (was pointing to old iCloud path)
- Updated run_update_and_learn.sh to explicitly pass correct data-dir
- Now saves data to /Projekte/Lotto/data instead of iCloud
This ensures automatic updates save to the correct location.
