Lottery

A lottery is a system of drawing lots in which participants purchase tickets for a chance to win prizes, typically involving money. The winner(s) are determined by a random selection of numbers or tickets. Lotteries are often organized by governmental or private entities and can serve as a means of raising funds for public projects, charities, or entertainment. They usually feature various prize levels, with larger prizes attracting more participants. The concept is often associated with chance and luck, as winning is not based on skill but purely on favorable random outcomes.
