quickpick

Quick pick is a term used across multiple domains to denote a rapid or automated selection process. It is not a single product or service, but a generic label applied to different mechanisms that share the goal of speeding up choice or fulfillment.

In lotteries, Quick Pick refers to an option where numbers are generated randomly by a computer rather than chosen by the player. A Quick Pick can be used for one or more lines on a ticket, and the numbers are selected at the point of sale or by a terminal. The odds of winning with Quick Pick numbers are the same as with self-selected numbers under the game’s rules.

In software and user interface design, Quick Pick describes a component or pattern that presents a list of options and allows the user to select quickly, often with features such as search, filtering, and keyboard navigation. The term may appear as QuickPick, Quick-Pick, or similar in documentation or code, and implementations vary by platform or framework.

In logistics and retail, quick picking refers to processes intended to speed order fulfillment or customer pickup, focusing on rapid retrieval and preparation of items, especially for high-turnover products.

Originating from the words “quick” and “pick,” the term emphasizes speed and convenience. Because its meaning varies by context, it is important to identify the relevant domain when interpreting a reference to quick pick.
