assignment are working, etc.
Anyway, what are these kind of statement call so that I can read up

num_whites = ticket_whit
Python built in types are enough for this problem IMO. You can use sets of
tuples to specify ticket and drawings and then just do set intersection.
Say the drawing is set([(5, 'wb'), (1, 'wb'), (45, 'wb'), (23, 'wb'), (27,
'wb')]) (keeping black ball out). The you can create a score function:

As an exercise for me to learn about Python, I am trying to determine
the best way to search a list of "lottery drawings" for a match with a
lottery ticket.
Possible numbers for a drawing are:
5 whiteballs (wb): 1-55
