10-sided Dice Lotto?
I have my Dice object created below:

/**
* @author Cal7169 Christopher Lewis
* @version Apr 15, 2009
* create a die object
*/
import java.util.Random;
public class Die {

private Random generator;
private int numSides;


public Die(int y)
{
numSides = y;
generator = new Random();
}

public int cast()
{
return 1 + generator.nextInt(numSides);
}

}

But i am stuck in creating my lottery game:
This is what i have so far:

import java.util.Scanner;
public class lewisLotto {

/**
* @param args
*/

public static void main(String[] args) {

Die myDie = new Die(9);
int rolls = 20;
for(int j=1; j<=rolls; j++)
{
int num = myDie.cast();
System.out.println(num + "");


System.out.print("Time to play the lotto!");
System.out.print("Enter 3 for Daily Number, 4 for Big Four, and 5 For Quinto ");

And this is what i would like to do:
3 Daily Number
4 Big Four
5 Quinto
Enter the game number (number of digits needed): 2
Please enter a number between 3 and 5
3 Daily Number
4 Big Four
5 Quinto
Enter the game number (number of digits needed): 3
Enter the year you were born: 2000
Enter the month you were born (1-12): 10
Enter the day of the month you were born (1-31): 1
I rolled the dice 2011 times.
Your lucky number is...

RE: 10-sided Dice Lotto?
This would a simple program. I am not sure where exactly you are stuck. If you can tell me the logic of finding the lucky number, I will be able to help.
