Lexxeous's MegaLotto

MegaLotto is a Ruby gem built via the free "Build a Ruby Gem" email tutorial course provided by Brandon Hilkert. This repository was created simply as my interpretation of the project. I claim no affiliation or ownership of any code contained within this repository.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "mega_lotto_benchmark", "~> 1.0"

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself with:

$ gem install mega_lotto_benchmark

Main Ruby code is located in the lib/mega_lotto file. Supporting files are located in neighboring files within the lib/ directory. To experiment with this code, run bin/console for an interactive prompt.

This gem also includes benchmarks for 3 different way of generating the array of random MegaLotto numbers. This shows the difference of computational speed for a few different Ruby methods.

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Run rake spec, rspec spec, or simply rspec to run the tests.

To install the gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
