Hard lottery project.

[1q2w3e]

You are to create a lottery game program that allows a user to simulate playing the lottery. In
this lottery game, the winning number combination comprises four unique numbers, each in
the range of 1 to 40
A winning ticket will match from one to four numbers and pay-out based on the following
schedule: 1 number matched = $2.00, 2 numbers matched = $20.00, 3 numbers matched
$100.00, and 4 numbers matched = $1,000.
Your lottery game program should allow the user to:
1. purchase and store from 1 to 5 lottery tickets. The numbers on each ticket are
determined randomly. A single ticket cannot have duplicate numbers.
2. print the purchased tickets in the following format (this example shows five tickets):
Ticket 1: 21-17-22-30
Ticket 2: 16-5-42-25
Ticket 3: 40-11-28-7
Ticket 4: 34-8-16-1
Ticket 5: 26-37-15-40
3. have the program choose and print the winning lottery number in the following format:
Winning Numbers: 16-42-8-1
4. check the tickets purchased against the winning number and print out the results as
follows:
Ticket 1: 2-17-22-30
1 match: 17
Ticket total $2.00
Ticket 2: 16-5-42-25
2 matches: 16, 42
Ticket total: $20.00
Ticket 3: 40-11-28-72
no matches
Ticket total: $0.00
Ticket 4: 34-8-16-1
1 match: 16
Ticket total: $2.00
Ticket 5: 26-37-15-40
no matches
Ticket total: $0.00
Total Winnings: $24.00

Any one has an idea of doing this?

@OP: what is hard about it? Given the assignment text the code almost writes
itself, you just have to put the description to source code.

kind regards,

My problem is how to do step 4:
4. check the tickets purchased against the winning number and print out the results as
follows:
Ticket 1: 2-17-22-30
1 match: 17
Ticket total $2.00
Ticket 2: 16-5-42-25
2 matches: 16, 42
Ticket total: $20.00
Ticket 3: 40-11-28-72
no matches
Ticket total: $0.00
Ticket 4: 34-8-16-1
1 match: 16
Ticket total: $2.00
Ticket 5: 26-37-15-40
no matches
Ticket total: $0.00
Total Winnings: $24.00
I need some hints.
