I'm trying to create an array of random unique numbers from 0 to 39 so that I can list these numbers in a countdown and without repetition, ie: 25, 29, 11, 03, 17 etc. These are 40 different numbers, equal or greater than 0 and equal or less than 39.

I have made a short script to generate some random numbers that must be unique. But it doesn't work as I thought it would have done! What is wrong in my code? Preciate some help to change my code so that generate unique random numbers.

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.

View 3 RepliesThe following program gives me the results in the output panel because I used trace. The problem is that I want these numbers displayed when I click on a button. The numbers should not duplicate when the button is clicked, for example not "3, 3, 2" but "3, 2, 5". Here is the program that randomly selects numbers (which by the way is not mine): (I'll happily donate 15$ to the animal charity of your choice for whoever can give me a hand with this problem

View 5 RepliesMaking 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'm trying to find a simple way to solve this problem: I have an array of integers and need to find the highest value that is unique.Specifically, my array holds player scores. Ex: (4,7,6,5,2,7)I need a function that will give me the highest score that it is not tied with another score. So for the example above, it would return 6 (not 7 since there are two 7's)

I'm working on a project where I have an array of coordinate points (4 of them) and a menu system that, when clicked, rearranges the boxes so that they all move around. The problem is that the values I pull out of the array are not always unique so some of the items end up not moving (or sometimes it ends up moving two to the same spot because the last one didn't move and one of them moved to a spot that is already occupied).
Here is the code I was using which for the most part works, except as mentioned, sometimes the check for the last one in the loop sees that the conditional is not equal so it doesn't do anything because there is no other values to loop through and it just leaves it in that spot.
Code:
private function checkCoordinates($item:MenuItem, $coords:Array):Void
{
var numItems:Number = $coords.length;

I am making an user application where users can chat one on one for an x amount of time till they go to the next user (see it as speeddating). Only they are all women talking about women stuff like knitting or something. A friends chat.
I am stuck with making unique pairs. only the first round is going great (unique pairs), but then it gets mixed up:

As you can see everyone in round 1 is paired good. But in round 2 you see (for example) Donna talking to Cindy, but Brenda is also talking to Donna. that's not right. she can't talk to 2 people at once.

My hitTestObject fails even though a trace shows that I'm getting access to the correct target object.
I read a post that said that hitTestObject won't work if the hitter has the same identifier as other hitters (like in an array). So I tried using a single hitter (set the array to have only one element) and it does work, which makes me think I need to give a unique ID to each hitter in the array.
I can declare a string var in the for loop and make it unique, but since it's a string it won't accept being typed as another class.

View 1 RepliesI encountered a rather irritating problem yesterday. I wrote a class. The class has got 1 variable of the type :Array. its a public variable.On the scene i have 2 movieclips which are connected to my class through its linkage in the library.My problem is that even though the instance-variable (the array) is supposed to be unique for the instance only it gets overwritten for every new instance i create.for example. if i assign the first instance's array 2 values (1, 1)and the do the same with the second but here i change the values to (2,2) then when i check my first instance it has got the same values as the second instance...that is (2,2). [code]
View 2 RepliesThe Setup: For each movieclip the hittests a set of "target" movieclips an array is given a value. If mcIcon1 is dropped onto mcTarget1 the first number in the vacant array is given the value of one. The Issue: If I remove mcIcon1, for example, from the mcTarget1 movieclip I can't find a way of just removing the 1 from that array without the rest of the array numbers being reset.
