Here's a program idea that I bet is kind of rare.
I am working on developing my psychic abilities (seriously), and I want to write a program to assist me in determining how far my 'quick-pick' lotto tickets are straying from random chance.
For example, every day I spend $1 and buy a 'pick 3' game, where 3 numbers from 0-9 are chosen randomly. I want to input my daily numbers, and have it track my personal progress against the random chance.
I realize it might take quite a few tickets, maybe hundreds before the graph levels out to where it could be useful, but I've already got about 60 now.
I'm still learning C++, so what I really need help with is where to look for the right statistical libraries to find an algorithm that I need for this, or is this something I would have to design completely myself?
