Forum: Ruby on Rails Lottery Number Matching

Can any body please help me to solve this?

Create a lottery app which will take a number as parameter and there 
will
be a set of number from 0 to n random number every time.
If the given number matches the random array[0] number by the program, 
show
a message you won the loterry.
If the given number matches the random array[1] number by the program, 
show
a message you are second.

Which university? ;)

Here I have tried a bit.


class Constlottery
    def self.rand_number
        randoms = []
        loop do
            puts "Enter a random number"
            new_number = gets.chomp
            if new_number.to_s == rand(1..9).to_s
                puts "You are winner"
                return
            else
                puts "You lost the chance"
            end
        end
    end
end

a = Constlottery.rand_number

puts a

Hi Samir,

Please consider the following

   - this groups isn't something that you can expect to work on your
   university assignments
   - we expect you to try and accomplish something by yourself, or 
search
   through google, or read some tutorials first before posting here
   - this post is already 3 days old so you should've made more progress
   than what you have right now
   - hearing "I've tried a bit" gives the notion that you haven't tried 
at
   all
   - try to analyze what each line of code does and i'm sure you'll get 
it
   - get back to this group if you're really stuck. give us insights on
   what you've done to debug the problem and maybe, there'll be someone 
here
   in the groups to help you

Good luck!

Is this something that the university gave you as a personal exercise? 
Or
is this from some site tutorial you're following.  Either way, you 
should
start at the basics of ruby if you're really new to the language.
