ActionScript 3.0 :: Get Random Values From Xml Array Without Repeating?
Jan 27, 2010
I am importing video playlist using xml. As soon as one video is done, I pick up next random video from the xml list of videos. Lets say I have 5 videos in that list - getting random numbers from 5 would look like so: 1 , 3, 1, 4, 3, 3, 3, 2, 5, 2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 3, 3, 2 but I really want to have something like this: 4, 2, 5, 3, 1 The problem becomes apparent - the random numbers are repeating. I guess I would have to create some sort of loop to go through xml and get random number and then not repeat it. Any ideas how to make this work. Here is my xml (just 5 videos for example):

I've got a button and an empty movie clip. Id like to show 4 photos in a random way but without repeating it till all of them are shown first.[code]...
I don't know how to create an array and on every Random number you check if the new Random number is already in the array. If not, you put that value in the array. If it is already in the array...you generate a new Random number. When the array contains all numbers.

I'm trying to create a shuffle button for my mp3 player. I don't want it to repeat any song in the xml playlist until all the songs are played. Is there to display a random number on the click of a button, without repeating any number in the array until all the numbers in the array are used?

I'm creating a flash game in which you are a UFO flying over a group of cows and you have to abduct them. It's a top view game so I have the grass moving from top to bottom and I have a movie with 5 cows and theres a controller in the _root movie that creates a random variable:
_root.cows = random(5);
Now everytime the controller movie gets to a certain frame, that frame tells the cow movie to play a certain cow (Moving from top to bottom) based on the current variable. What's happening is when there is a repeat, the cow disapears and jumps back to the top. Seeing how there's only 5 cows you can tell this happens a lot.Now I've researched this a bit and found that I can create an array of random numbers and splice each one as I've used it. I've tried this, copied different codes and I can't get it to work.

I'm using the following code below, and basically I've got 4 containers which all load a random image from a folder. The problem is there are often double ups with the containers. How can I adjust the code below to ensure each container loads an image that isn't already in any of the other containers?
PHP Code:
pic_arr = ["images/1", "images/2", "images/3", "images/4", "images/5", "images/6","images/7","images/8","images/9","images/10","images/11"];
onLoad = function () {

I'm trying to build a bingo card, that will show random words in different locations each time you reload the page. It's 5x5 grid. I'm planning to set up 25 arrays (for each text field on my card), containing lists of the same 25 words. I have a code that pulls random words from each array into my text fields, but I can't figure out how to prevent the words from repeating on the card. A different word should be pulled out from each array.
Here is my code so far:
var words1:Array = ["word","table","lamp"];
var words2:Array = ["word","table","lamp"];
var words3:Array = ["word","table","lamp"];

I'm using Flash CS3 and would like to create an image gallery that randomly loads images listed in an XML file without repeating any of the images until all have been displayed once.I've managed to combine a couple of tutorials to create an image gallery that randomly loads images from an XML file, but images often repeat before all images have been displayed once (there are over 2 dozen images).

2) how do I need to show months on Xaxis. beacuse I'm asking this regarding, I have kept a filters that even if we want to see some months or a particular months or perticalar span of months... there on Xaxis it need to change the months dynamically depending on the filters..... (for ex, on Xaxis the values should be (Jan, Apr, Jun,Oct) if i select the 3 months period filter....)
I have written a logic to collect the values of those particular months into an array, but not understading how to pass this array to Bar chart,, beacuse there I don't know what Xfield and Yfield to be given....

I've got 6 arrays and need to create a single randomised array pulling the elements out of the original 6 arrays. The extra kicker is that I can't have two elements from a single source array next to each other. I've cobbled this code together:
ActionScript Code:
var a:Array = [["1_1", "1_2", "1_3", "1_4", "1_5", "1_6"],
["2_1", "2_2", "2_3", "2_4", "2_5", "2_6"],
["3_1", "3_2", "3_3", "3_4", "3_5", "3_6"],
["4_1", "4_2", "4_3", "4_4", "4_5", "4_6"],
[Code]....
That works maybe 90% of the time but often on the last 2 or 3 loops it ends up repeating hence the escape clause in the while. I have thought that in the fail situation I could scan through the built array to find a different place to add the value in but was wondering if there is a better overall method out there.

I want a movieclip consisting of a dynamic text box that, from the time it's loaded onto the stage, loads a randomly selected text string from an array, and continues to loop until the clip is removed from the stage. I also want the text strings to appear in the text box for random intervals between 500 and 3000 milliseconds.
While I've found tutorials here and elsewhere on loading one element from an array, usually triggered by a button, I don't know how to combine/alter it with the other elements.So I want this movieclip on the stage randomly flashing phrases from an array, some for a barely perceptible time, and others for a readable time.

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
