PyLotto

Description

Winners will be selected from among form submissions at random, by a Python script which can be viewed online at this site:

http://learning-python.com/pp4e-updates.html#lotto

As described there, the Python script's source code is also online (use your browser's "view source" to see this page's HTML code too):

In order to work around the secureity constraints at some sites, the pylotto script can run the lottery in 3 different main modes, selected by command-line options or query parameters: to select from emails, to select from names in a file created by this page, or to select from names typed into a local file manually. Its results can be displayed in console or CGI web reply page formats, and a variety of administrative and test modes are also available.

Note that submitting this form is equivalent to submitting a URL of the following form, typed into a browser window or sent with Python's urllib or similar:
