UK Lottery Random Number Generator
� Archimedes World 1995
Introduction.
So you have been playing the National Lottery for a few months now but never
won anything. This program makes it easier to pick numbers than trying to
work from permutations or trying to work from a theory.
This utitilty was written after reading about a calculator type device which
can be bought in the U.S. for selecting 'random' lottery numbers.
So this is the RISC OS equivalent for the UK National Lottery.
How To Use:
After loading !Lottery, simply select the !Lottery Icon from the desktop
now select the 'Start' icon the program will generate six numbers for you.
If you wish to choose another six numbers just select the 'Start' icon once
again. We wish you the best of luck... 00000000 0a 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 |. | 00000010 20 20 20 20 20 20 55 4b 20 4c 6f 74 74 65 72 79 | UK Lottery| 00000020 20 52 61 6e 64 6f 6d 20 4e 75 6d 62 65 72 20 47 | Random Number G| 00000030 65 6e 65 72 61 74 6f 72 0a 0a 20 20 20 20 20 20 |enerator.. | 00000040 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 | | 00000050 a9 20 41 72 63 68 69 6d 65 64 65 73 20 57 6f 72 |.
