LotteryGenerator

by lennihein

This lottery number generator is as universal as possible. Use the generic functions to build your own executable. EuroJackpot, Euromillion and 6aus49 have been implemented already.

To compile and run:

Option A: Using Nix (Recommended)

If you have Nix installed with flakes enabled:

# Build the project
nix build

# Run EuroJackpot
./result/bin/EuroJackpot

You can also enter a development environment with all dependencies preloaded by running nix develop.

Option B: Manual Installation

Requirements:

• cmake
• make
• libsodium

On Arch:

sudo pacman -S cmake make libsodium

Finally, build and run:

cmake .
make
./6aus49

To add new games:

create a GAME_NAME.c file with the following contents:

#include "lottolib.h"
int main()
{
    printf("GAME_NAME\n");
    def(MIN, MAX, #NUMBERS, MIN_BONUS, MAX_BONUS, #BONUS_NUMBERS);
}

Where:

• GAME_NAME is the name of the game, e.g. 'Eurojackpot'
• MIN, MAX and #NUMBERS are the minimum, maximum and number of numbers, e.g. 1,50 and 5 for 5 numbers between 1 and 50
• and BONUS_* are the modifiers for the additional number(s) working the same way as with the normal base numbers
