loops - Python random lottery results -

a task have been set create program people pick random numbers lottery , have no clue start.the program must:

• allow players select between 1 - 5 lines.
• 6 number on each line.
• each number must between 1-49.
• and option repeat.

this have far:

    lines=int(input("how many lines like?"))     in range (0,lines):          import random     lotterynumbers = []      x = 0       while x < 6:          lotterynumbers.append(random.randint(1, 49))          x += 1      lotterynumbers.sort()      print (lotterynumbers) 

please help.

here, should help:

from random import randint rand_number  def create_lotter_numbers(amount=6):     return [rand_number(1,49) in range(amount)]  def get_user_input(prompt="how many lines like? "):     return int(input(prompt)) 

example of use:

>>> = get_user_input() how many lines like? 5 >>> in range(a):     create_lotter_numbers()   [47, 22, 4, 7, 41, 16] [12, 30, 36, 1, 39, 10] [7, 19, 7, 13, 1, 17] [5, 26, 9, 49, 32, 22] [32, 30, 5, 34, 45, 6] 

about limiting user input, repetition, validity etc... can solve on own. answer here underlying code not faulty have posted.
