    alist = sorted([pb1, pb2, pb3, pb4, pb5])
    print ("Your numbers: {} Powerball: {}".format(alist, pb6))
   
I am trying this example.  The program works, but the numbers don't
line up if the number of digits are different sizes.

Suggestion please?

BTW the exercise instructions say to use the choice function.  I
assume I had to include all the numbers to choose from instead of
picking a random number from 1-53 or 1-42.

I included my shortcut for pb2.  It doesn't work?  Is there a short to
prevent from listing each number?
