Buy lottery tickets.
What is the output of this program, for any lottery of your choice:-
0. Assume a lottery win; set iterations = 0
1. While winnings >0; iterations++
2. Spend winnings on lottery tickets; wait for draw; collect winnings
3. End loop
4. Debug.sob "Winnings = 0 after " & iterations
This program will not run forever (ignoring small change difficulties).Comment
