    Default Lotto program for intro to programing final

    I have my program working except for one part.
    I have to determine if 2 of the 3 random generated numbers match 2 of the 3 user input numbers.
    I have copied in just that part of the code and not the whole program.
    What happen if I have just one number match it says that 2 do.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    else if (lotteryDigit1 == guess1
               || lotteryDigit1 == guess2
               || lotteryDigit1 == guess3
               && lotteryDigit2 == guess1
               || lotteryDigit2 == guess2
               || lotteryDigit2 == guess3
               && lotteryDigit3 == guess1
               || lotteryDigit3 == guess2
               || lotteryDigit3 == guess3)                                    
     
          System.out.println("Two numbers match: you win $1,000");

    Looks like you are testing for three matching numbers and printing "Two numbers match"
