lottery programme

[strat59]

I was asked to make a lottery programme for a friend
and thought it might be a useful example file so i've
posted it here feel free to use the graphics and code
for whatever you like. This is the english lottery but
its easy to adapt.

i heard mmf's random() isnt as random as the random object

There is no such thing as perfectly random. To get a almost perfectly random number, you need a physical object. Like a coin built in the computer or something.

It still wouldn't be random :P
random defies the laws of cause and effect
