as a fun little project i scripted a powerball program. it seems to
have a bug in it that i cant find.
from random import randrange
wins=0
win=[]
count =0
while count !=5:
number=randrange(55)+1
win.append(number)
count=count+1
powerball=randrange(42)+1
count=0
win.sort()
while count !=146107962:
numbers=[]
count2=0
while count2 !=5:
number=randrange(55)+1
if number in win:
numbers.append(number)
else:
print "lose"
break
numbers.sort()
ball=randrange(42)+1
if ball==powerball:
print "win"
print
print
print win, powerball
