View 9 Repliescreate a function that picks out X amount of numbers from a set of numbers? So if X=3, then i need this function to pick out 3 different numbers from say a set of numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) and then stored it into X number of variables.
In saying that, X will only =2, and =5. So in the first instance, i'll need 2 random numbers from the set above that are not the same numbers, and second instance 5 random numbers from the set above (also no repeats of numbers). Then i need to be able to store those 2 or 5 different random numbers from the set into variables to call them with other functions.
What I'm trying to do now is have 6 characters on stage (these characters are stored in an array) and 2 characters from this 6 will hold a number each and the other 4 will hold an alphabet each. What I want to do is to run this file many times and each time the each alphabets and numbers will be randomly displayed within these 6 characters there will always be 2 numbers and 4 alphabets but I shouldn't know which character will be holding an alphabet and which will be holding a number. I have only two functions now one function is to generate two random numbers to indicate which index of characters to pick to hold a number and then another for loop that run 6 times to addChild on stage.
View 4 Repliesi am using actionscript 3, and the problem that I have is that i am creating an array of 16 buttons and need to use the function math.random to get it to pick 5 random unique numbers out of the array. as at the moment it is sometimes picking 5 unique numbers and sometimes it has duplicate buttons appearing?

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.

View 8 RepliesI am generating random numbers between two numbers by the code bellow:
ActionScript Code:
public function randomRange(max:Number, min:Number = 0):Number
{
return Math.round(Math.random() * (1+max - min) + min);
}
trace(randomRange(3,-31));
But I need a code which will return some times '3' and some times '-31'. Not the number between them.
My problem is that I'm trying to pick numbers out of an array to a cardgame.
Code:
stop();
//var kort = new Array (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10);

I am trying to convert a string having numbers to an integer.
//15 9's are there
var str:String="999999999999999"
var res:Number = new Number(str);
But it is not able to convert correctly as the the var res now has the value 100000000000000000. I know that the number has 52 bits of memory, then why is it not able to do the conversion?
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?
View 2 RepliesI have been using Actionscript 3.0 in Adobe Flash Builder for a few weeks,and I really like it! Bare with me because I'm not really good at it, yet. Anyway, I was wondering how would I go by adding up odd numbers from an array of numbers? I know how to make all of the numbers add up, but adding only the odd numbers I'm not so sure how to do it.

Basically what I need to do is I'm populating a library with a for loop with specific clips that need to be in a random order but never duplicates.So basically, it get selects a random number between 1-6 and if that number hasn't been selected yet, it will run it will use it as my integer in my for loop then continue running the loop until numbers 1-6 have all been used, but never used twice.

I have a custom slideshow that I've made that has a set of four images changing every 5 seconds. The images are randomly selected by a random number between 0 and the length of my XML.
how can I get four unique random numbers - i.e., getting 1, 4, 6, and 8 rather than 1, 4, 6, and 6?
So once a random number is selected, it can't be selected again.
I need some actionscript that will give me a random number between -50 and 50. Been looking at it for a while now.
The main thing is, I need to create a random value which could be a neg or a positive number, on every frame. So far I can create a random value, but can't get it to be neg one frame and positive the next.
I am going to make a quiz. It loads questions from an XML. I want to load random questions from the file without repetition. How can I achieve that? Can you give me the script for generating non-repeating random numbers.

However, I'd like the most of them to cluster between 1 and 30, with proportionaly less chance of them occuring above 30.
