It turns out that urllib2 and 3 are both built into python so I didn't
have to stress over the dependency error. However, I do have an error
and I'm not completely certain that I understand how the code provided
by Peter works. The following is the error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/phil/Python/lotto.py", line 10, in <module>
data = json.loads(s)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/json/__init__.py", line 338, in loads

raise ValueError("No JSON object could be decoded")
