hobby project. small circuit on real IBM Quantum hardware,

mapped the bitstrings to lotto number ranges (PCSO 6/42–6/58,

UK lotto, US powerball). rejection sampling for non-power-of-2

ranges + a filter that retries on obviously skewed combos.

does NOT improve odds obviously — same math, just true-random

instead of pseudo-random. mostly built it for the bit.

questions:

1. rejection sampling for 1-42 / 1-55 — is there a smarter

   mapping i'm missing? feels wasteful tbh

2. the skew filter retrying on bad combos — does it leak bias

   back in? gut says no but want a sanity check

link in comments if mods are cool with it.
