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
