Python Tutorial: Simulate the Powerball Lottery Using Python

In this Python Programming video, we will be learning how to simulate the Powerball lottery using Python. I have seen several lottery simulations online, but not many of them go in-depth to calculate all of the possible combinations. Here, we will create a simulation that goes through every win condition and simulates the lottery in the way it is played in a real-life situation. Let's get started...

Hey everyone. LONG TIME NO SEE. I know this is the first video in a long time but I plan on getting back to tutorials in 2023 and hope for many more uploads this year. I hope everyone had a safe holiday and is enjoying their new year.

Also, I had some issues with my code formatter in this video. I plan on fixing this today. I usually try to keep the screen clutter free for you all, so please try to ignore the editor adding in a lot of unneeded suggestions and filling stuff in for me. I need to uninstall a couple of experimental packages to my editor and it should be back to normal.

Corey! You were gone so long that I managed to get my first job in IT, and get promoted to mid software engineer. You are one of the people who made this possible. It is so glad to see you back!

[coreyms]

Also, if anyone is coding along and randomly hit the jackpot by buying one ticket on one drawing… my mind will be blown 🤯

Corey,

I know there is a chance that you may never see this message, but I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the impact you have had on my life. Your YouTube Flasks series and content have been invaluable in helping me become a software engineer (today I can safely say that I've made it), and I am incredibly thankful for all that you have shared. As a Brazilian who has faced many challenges in life, including growing up in a slum, I am especially grateful for the opportunity to access high-quality educational resources like yours, I truly mean it. Thank you for everything you do. I hope that you, and those you care about, are able to achieve all the success and happiness that you deserve.


Also, keep up the great work, Corey! Your videos are truly outstanding. I am confident that your work will continue to inspire and benefit many others!

[ThePyCoach]

I remember binge-watching your Python tutorials during the pandemic in 2020. I’m glad you’re back!

Pleased you are back! Mark Twain: A lottery is a voluntary tax on those who don’t understand mathematics

[HypnosisBear]

Man... I missed you so much... I thought you were gone for good. After seeing your new video notification, I couldn't believe myself! I'm about to cry. 😭😭😭 I'll never forget your help.

[brenswen_]

So glad you're back. Your YouTube videos played a huge part in my Python journey, and now I'm a Data Scientist at a publicly traded e-Commerce company. Thank you for your quality content!

[lucioamaral]

"Dear Corey - I just wanted to express my gratitude for the free Python and Django teachings that you have made available to everyone. Your videos have been incredibly helpful for me in my journey to learn programming, and I have been 'eating' them up as my breakfast, lunch, and dinner! Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication to helping others learn.

[allo]

The GOAT is back! I started learning python from your videos and now am paid to do it. Thanks for your help Corey!!

[aashaydhawal]

my eyes lit up when I saw a new video from you Corey!! Welcome back

[thomaskuoch]

Started my first job with success thanks to your videos three years ago, now I am a confirmed python developer. Thanks and welcome back !

[johnprouty]

Proof that the lottery is a tax on the statistically disinclined. Great tutorial. Great to have you back Corey.

[davidlinux]

Welcome back Corey. it really is none of your viewers business why you were away. I am glad, as I am confident others are too, that you are back. Thank you for all that you do.

[vladusa]

Since you last uploaded, I registered a social network LLC, got 100k+ in funding, and mastered Django REST API. I now get regular website development clients as well. I can’t thank you enough for teaching me how this world of development works. 🙌

[shepardnathan]

Bro!! You don’t own us anything. So happy you felt like putting up new Python videos! I’ll pile on to everyone and say you’re super clear and thoughtful when you explain what’s going on. Truly talented.

[VaurionX]

Great tutorial, you should title this video "The cure for a gambling addiction".

[danielghirasim]

When your last video was released I was just a noob trying to learn programming, I'm still a noob who is trying to learn programming but now I have a job in the industry and I am getting paid for it :). I truly appreciate the effort you put into the videos and it is very good to see you making videos again. Thank you for everything!

[taylor]

Hey Corey, I just got my first job in tech as a Python software engineer. Your courses were a big help for me in my job interviews! I had no CS degree or bootcamps, just a portfolio and knowledge from YouTube, Udemy, and Coursera.

[oluwadamilaretijani]

Welcome back legend, you sustained my interest in programming, I am in the UK now and doing the final switch of my career from Mathematics Teacher to a Data Scientist. You're the best Python Teacher on the planet.
