A confirmation page will verify your lottery sign-up.
Duplicate sign-ups are filtered out during selection. 

This page runs the pylotto script described below to 
add your name to the players file on a web server. 

------------------------------------------------------------

Description:

Winners will be selected from among sign-ups at random, 
by a Python script which can be viewed online here:

    http://www.rmi.net/~lutz/pp4e-updates.html#lotto

As described there, the script's source code is also online:

    http://www.rmi.net/~lutz/pylotto.py

The instructor will run this script remotely on the web if 
HTTP is allowed (you can run this URL on your own, but its 
results will be ignored):

    http://www.learning-python.com/cgi/pylotto.py?-show=cgi&-find=file

A fully-local mode may be used if neither POP nor HTTP is 
allowed on site:

    pylotto.py -find file -show console
