write a program which generates one ticket for lotto 649. recall that each lotto 649 ticket consists of six different integers between 1 and 49. be carefull! your program must ensure that the ticket does not contain duplicate numbers.

i always get low marks on my pseudocode's can someone get me started im really stuck i still have to write the program itself. providing me the first few lines would be helpfull. thnx

what you want to do is have an array to keep track of which numbers you have already picked, and a for loop to pick the six numbers. so it would be like:

code:

declare array of length 6, initilize to all impossible numbers like 0
for i : 1 ..6
   loop
      temp = Rand.Int(1, 49)
      check using for loop of the number is in the array already
      if it isnt, exit
   end loop
   add temp to the array in position i
end for

use a for loop to print the contents of the array to see the numbers
