Say I have an array:
myList:Array = new Array();
myList = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9];
myRandomList:Array = new Array();[code].............
However, is there a way to rewrite this as a function?
when the line of code "koan.shuffle();" is commented out swfs called "koan_1.swf" or "koan_2.swf" etc are loaded properly into a "koan_loader_mc" on the stage, albeit not randomized. (Each "koan_#.swf" has code in its last frame to both advance the "shuffle" array in the action script in the first frame of the stage and to load the next koan swf.) Why does "koan.shuffle();" not only fail to randomize the array, but, break the entire loading process? Frame on main stage:
// creates function called at the end of koan_#.swfs
function shuffle(a:Array) {
for (var ivar = a.length-1; ivar>=0; ivar--) {
var p = Math.floor(Math.random())(ivar+1);

I have used a method to shuffle a part of a Array, but i noticed that it does not work very well.When i run this method I sometimes get empty array values.So if you would try the example below and test it out some times you would get a right result but sometimes a wrong result.For example when i run this i get in my trace output:
a,b,c,d,g,,e,f (here after the g it goes wrong)
a,b,c,f,g,d,e (here it goes right)
a,b,c,d,,g,f,e (here it goes wrong)[code]...
i used the Fader class to build a fade in-out slideshow and wanted to make it shuffle. While the slideshow works fine by its own, i just can�t figure the way to make it switch the images randomly. Here�s the code:
ActionScript Code:
import com.utils.Fader.*;
import com.utils.Fader.FaderItems;
import com.utils.Fader.Events.*;
[code]...
Im not sure the list of added elements (all mc) on _faderItems works as an array.
I got a class extending the array. np there when I instantiate a new object from the class I call it myArray (var myArray:NewArray = new NewArray(); ) now what's the fastest way to fill the new object? All I could find is

What i need to do is to randomize the variable named: randomCard if randomCard doesnt equal any value of myCards array. (randomize again if the value of randomCard isnt in the myCards array)
obviously youll notice that in this part of the code: while (randomCard != myCards); myCards isnt correctly defined
Code:
private var myCards:Array = [0,2,4];
do {
randomCard = Math.floor(Math.random()*4);

I have an array in a keyframe - but i want to have it in a textfile instead ( so that others can edit it for themselves. But i am having difficulty doing it. At the moment I have this on a button
[Code]...
What I'd like to know is how to change the above array so that it would work in a text file (which would be easier for others to edit you see). I think i could divide the letters by : and then use some code to break the array apart at ':'. But I am not really sure. Can anyone give me some pointers? Also - if u have time to shuffle the array so letters appear in different boxes each time?

how can you randomize the results of an array in a for loop?
I am loading data in via xml and when doing a for loop to iterate through instead of showing 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 ect... how can i randomize for [i] ? If i do it in the for loop it keeps doing the randomizing and gets stuck and if after things are already loaded. how is it done?

Im loading in xml video playlist. After one video is done, I want to load next video in random order, but without repeating. The code below works - it is loading next random video from an xml array, but even if it adds random videos - they do repeat. How to make it to load random videos without repeating?

var total:Number = xml.video.length();
var randomNum:uint = 0;

How do I get the following to weight the randomize results 3 to 1 (or 4 to 1) in favor of the Dog?

The randomization is working just great, but now client wants to weight the results.

I would like to Flash to only randomize value B C D.

View 4 RepliesI was looking for a way to shuffle a deck of cards last week and I was provided with some code to do so. I decided a straight shuffle would work better with my project than randomizing coordinates (as I was doing). I'm trying to implement the code, and I think I'm pretty close, but I'm running into a few snags. I'm using Shuffle.as as my document class, and another external class called Card.as to control the flipping and drag action of my cards. At the moment, I'm getting this message when I try to run the swf: 1084: Syntax error: expecting leftbrace before Deck. I think this is indicative of an error somewhere else in my code, but I'm not sure where. Do you see anything upon first glance?

I have a string value that is always 8 digits long. I need to shuffle the letters in a random sequence, for example the word actionscript must become something like ptcsacointr. The sequence of shuffling can be anything. Anyone have an idea how i can do this? Oh yes, the shuffle cannot be random. it must be a set sequence that is always used...
View 6 Repliesmake a classic 15 piece sliding picture puzzle. I need to shuffle the pieces in order to play the game and to do this have made an array of numbers 0 -14 and shuffled them. I then made a for loop which run 15 times using the pop method to take the last number from the array for each loop and store it in a variable shuffleVal. I have tested this and it works fine producing the 15 randomized numbers seperately, however when I try to use shuffleVal as a parameter for each Tiles boardPosition it only refers to the last value popped rather than each one from the loop. I have provided the code from my controller file .
