Random Repetition

How can I fill a list with numbers from 1-10 with random order but without repeating ?

You have to exclude the numbers already picked.

but how to do that?

Using conditions.

Set a variable:

=> Set var X = random(10)+1

Compare that variable to others already seted:

+If var X == var Y

=> Set var X = random(10)+1

Use loops to reapeat this until the condition "+If var X == var Y" is wrong.

Maybe there are another way to do this, but i can't think any other way right now.

Thanks for your quick help. It works as it should but it is extreme slow.

It takes 3-4 seconds for all 10 numbers to be generated.

If i turn FPS to unlimited it is much much faster.

Is there a faster way for doing this? I need the numbers on the fly but i dont want to turn off vsync.

But you used loops? With loops you can do it in 1 frame.

shure but there is a problem using loops on this because i can not use expressions fpr writing the nubers to the variables.

I don't get it to work. To bad my english is not that good. I try to explain what exactly i want.

I have an Array with 10 Flields on X axis. For each field i want a number from 1-10 but without repeat used numbers.

this could look like this: 5,8,2,1,6,9,3,10,4,7

No double numbers, just the numbers from 1-10 in a random order.

Could someone please help me out with an working example?

Thank you so much.

EDIT oh, shadowlord beat me to it <img src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> That brings up the question, why I saw his post not before posting mine <img src="smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

you may trying putting all numers in the array so then apply an loop to radomize the numbers...

Was trying to solve this same problem as simple as possible and looks like all the .cap files are out of date.

I am trying to create show numbers 1-3 randomly without repeating. Seems pretty simple but I am just getting stuck as my programming skills are not great. Any help is appreciated.

Here is what I have tried.

I have set three global variables.

varX

varY

varZ

On start of layout I am setting each of those...

System > Set varX to floor(random(3)+1)

System > Set varY to floor(random(3)+1)

System > Set varZ to floor(random(3)+1)

I am then setting text boxes on the layout to display each of the variables.

What are my next steps to check that all three numbers are different. 1, 2, 3 should show up in a different order each time.

Any help, explanation, etc. would be greatly appreciated. I am sure there is a much more simple way to approach this. Thanks for the time!

Took a stab. It seems to be working properly although I am wondering how to optimize make a lot more efficient as I can't imagine this being the most efficient approach. Any suggestions, improvements, etc. are greatly appreciated. Thanks for the time

Thanks so much for the reply but I am on a newer version of C2 and cannot open to have a look at the example. Appreciate your time uploading Jayjay!
