Lotto-net © 1993 Struthers Electric Inc. I was contracted to create a player's lotto-pool application that displayed statistical results and picked 'hot' groups of numbers from past Lotto-649 draws. Programmed in Turbo Pascal, this DOS-era bulletin board system (BBS) communicated with modems and phone lines. This application was one of my first large-scale freelance computer programming contracts, and it is included here to illustrate my ten year professional history. I learned a lot while working on this project, and it was in enjoying the contract so much that I decided to become a professional programmer. I've always been grateful for the oppportunity.
