 Thing to be done in future in this program to make it more efficient
 and more powerful:
   1. Make the dicission of the quantity of lots used according to 
      the scillators;
   2. This program will catch the gaps.
 Things to ware of:
   1. the spread;
   2. excuting the order not on the gap ends a little bit less.
