ActionScript 2.0 :: Selecting Random Number From Variable
May 30, 2010
So what I have here is a button that will take away a random number from a variable (in this case being money) this is nothing more than a learning experience and I just wish to broaden my horizons on flash AS.
Actionscript Code:
on (release) { money -= random(200); }on (release) {gotoAndPlay (2);}
While this code works just fine the only problem i have with it is that it will select a number from (0-200). Is there a way I can set this up to select a random number BETWEEN 2 numbers? EX: (150-200)

I've been putting data into an array via XML, and then selecting at random an image string to load in a pic at random. But whilst doing this, I wanted to remove the String from the Array that I have just used, so I don't get repetition of the same image in the output. I initially thought that pop would remove the string I had just used - But of course it Removes the last value in the Array instead, which doesn't really help.
Ok - so how about randomizing the data once inside the Array, after it has been pulled in from XML!? That way I can load in the 'last' image, and then pop it out! Keeping a randomized selection of images each time 'it' is loaded

the variable Im interested in is numSound which at the moment is a random number between 1 and 5, but it repeats too much and a sequence would be fine. I know very little actionscript and nothing I have tried works,the code, or what seems the relevant code, is
Code:
private function randRange(min:Number, max:Number):Number
{

I want to change this bit of code
var numSound:Number = randRange(1, 5);
which I presume creates a random number between 1 and 5, to just a simple sequence of 1 to 5, or alternately, random would be ok if there was a way to preventing it from repeating numbers

how to do this and not found much, so here goes:
I want to generate a variable number of random numbers less than 16 with no duplicate numbers
Ive posted the fla, and what i'm doing is generating a random number and putting it into an array then using a for loop to cycle through the array for each new random number to check if its already there. if it is, then i want to regenerate that number.
if you test the fla you'll see that all i get in my array is some lovely zero's and i sort of know why this is, but don't know how to stop it.

I am having a really frustrating problem with creating 2 random numbers. When I run the program, everything works fine, until I hit my object and go to the screen "math". Once there, all it shows is one number in one of the 2 boxes. Below is the code used to generate the numbers. I used the "trace" command to see if it was actually generating the numbers, and it is. The problem seems to be with pushing that number into the variable and displaying it to the user.

I have an app I'm creating with Flash CS5.5 with 42 different short stories in it. It has 2 scenes. Scene 1 is the opening and contents menu to access the stories. Scene 2 contains the 42 stories.In scene one, I have a button that I want to be able to pick a random story so it would need to pick a random frame between 1 and 42 in scene 2. I have seen some code in here that will pick a random frame when you open the program, but I don't know how to tie it to a button or pick a random frame in another scene.

I know this should be easy, but I can't seem to make it work. All I want is for the variable currentPage to select randomly from an array so that every time the page loads, it displays a different currentPage. This is what I have so far:
var myImages:Array = new Array("outsource_mc","solutions_mc","staff_mc");
var randomImages:Array = [];
var randomCount:Number = 1;
var r:Number;
for (var i = 0; i<randomCount; i++) {

Making a random number between lets say 0 and 99 is relatively straight forward using the Math.random class What is the best way to create 100 unique random numbers from between 0 and 99 where no random number is repeated?Would I make a random number, chuck it into an array then the next random number created is checked against the array, and if the number has been created before try for another number?

I have code that I got off line that will create a random number in the output tab. I put together an if else statement, however I can not figure out what how to call the random number into the if else statement. My last try was calling "n," However that did not work. I have a bit of the code that I am working with. I am giving only the first 3 but there are 13 in total, but as they are all the same just going to different frames I thought that it was not necessary to show them all.
function randRange(min:Number, max:Number):Number {
var randomNum:Number = Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min;
return randomNum;
[code]...
If there is an easier way to get the same thing I am open. I just want it to start on a specific random frame (13 of them).
