Thanks for the nice vote of confidence Russ. Unfortunately, I have come to realization that I don't quite have what it takes to pull off something like that. I've made a compromise and settled for IT instead (which is what I'm currently doing a bachelors degree in) No way I'd ever publish my own book without appropriate qualifications in that particular field. Good chance I'll write a beginners book on IT one day though.

But for now, think I'm gonna go and buy that lottery ticket. CYA

Idea for another project.

Pocket sized random number generator for lottery tickets.
Calculate odds based on past winning numbers and selectable for different lotteries.

I like that idea! Not like it hasn't been done before - but it is a realistic low-cost project that could be whipped up in no time at all.

I like that idea!

I thought you might.

Not like it hasn't been done before .

Its all in how you market it!!

*laughs*

But all you're doing is transferring the responsibility/blame for number selection from yourself to a machine...

Of course calculating the odds is easy, past numbers have no effect on future numbers

Maybe maybe not...
Now we would have to look into Chaos Theory, Entropy, Second Law of Thermodynamics, and my GRANDMA'S LUCKY BINGO CARD

Personally, I'd go with grandma's lucky bingo cared every time, it's alright I have been *discussing* with my father the tossing of coins, he insists that if I tossed 4 heads the next one was most likely to be a tail, blinking retired mechanical engineers, whatever next.

You should always listen to your elders.
