Duplicate Random Generated Numbers?
Mar 7, 2012
I have a code that generates random code using a set of letters. One for a random pin and another for a random code. I can loop the generation of my codes depending on the input. When I try to generate 1 to 3 set of codes it works fine. but if it's 4 and above. I always get a duplicate set of random numbers. I don't what wrong. My code for generating my codes are in vb.net and be passed to a stored procedure for inventory.
Button event:
Protected Sub genCodeBtn_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles genCodeBtn.Click
connection = accDB.databaseConnect()

The program must generate 6 unique random numbers but when I click display numbers sometimes it gives me 6 unique numbers and sometimes I get duplicate numbers. I will add the code I have so far.

So basically I'm making a BINGO game on vb 2008 and i have a "call number" button. The letter and numbers get added to a list box each time. But i do not want the same number to be called. Is there a way that the program can read the items in the list box and not generate (Randomly) the same value again to be displayed in the label.This is what i have:
Callnum = Int(75 * Rnd() + 1)
lstNumbersCalled.Items.Add(lblCallLetter.Text & " " & Callnum)

Right so my generator is working, but I now want to take the numbers that it generates and add them to a list of generated numbers. So you can monitor what numbers have been generated. then ideally a way to exclude these numbers from being generated again.

how to eliminate duplicate random numbers displayed in labels ( a column of 5 labels). This is for a BINGO game i am doing. I have tried a Do .. Loop until structure with a for next but i am not sure how to proceed:
Do
For NumB = 0 To 4
B(NumB) = Int(15 * Rnd() + 1)
itemarrayB(NumB).Text = B(NumB)
Next

The class Random is out right defective. It always produces the same random numbers in the same sequence. Things I have tried so far is every kind of seed you can think of as well as Randomize. The result is that I always get the same random numbers in exactly the same sequence.

So how would I use .next (random numbers) to randomly select something from a list of numbers but it can't repeat the number?I could do:
dim num as integer
dim r as new random
num = r.next(1,5)
if num = 1 then
elseif num = 2 then
etc.
That wouldn't work because it would repeat.If I donwload someone's game can I disect it in VS? :0 I tried going to open project, then I went to the folder and clicked open. It brought me inside of the folder so I tried to open the game but there is no form1 there. It says the games name then .exe in the explorer-like thing in the top right?Also, how would I have a value or something in a label and access it from a button.
Example:This is in a label.
Dim number as Integer
number = 0
Then in the button do
Label.number = 0
How would I do something like that? I want to use that a lot as I did in a different language.

I am using some arrays that are pre-filled and I am having a random number generated between 0-10. That random number will then go in to all 5 arrays and pull the item from that location. I think try to take the sentence that is generated into another string. Once that is complete I then go through the final array to pull all the sentences and concatenate them together.
Currently I've only been able to get 1 sentence to print out of 5...a fresh pair of eyes would prob see where I am going wrong...I've been at this for awhile and wouldn't mind some advice to where I am going wrong.

What I'm doing is trying to generate a number 1 through 4 which was easy enough but next what i want to do is assign four variables with the four generated numbers which i do. My next problem is making sure each different variable gets a different number which is a nightmare for me. I tried doing a For loop to see if it would keep generating until it was a completely different number though it would be a 25% chance to get that possibility (actually less because the other three numbers can be the same at this point) i give it 1,000,000 and still 1/4 of the time the first number is the same as one of the other three.

I've got a global random type variable, let's call it rRandom.In my code, I generate a random number like below:
Dim iRandom As Integer = rRandom.Next(0, x)
9 out of 10 times iRandom is 0, the other time it was 1. The code isn't on a timer, it happens when I do something (say clicking a button), so the frequency of the code being called is about 2-3 seconds, I say this because I've had similar issues when generating random numbers really fast in a timer, or with a for loop IIRC.X is a variable that, presently, starts at 3, and will decrease until 0, in which it'll return back to 3. Obviously, if X is 0, iRandom will be 0, but it shouldn't be 0 all the time.I'm declaring the variable globally because I remember, again, having similar issues using local variables, idk whether I should be or not.

I am trying to generate a random number during testing using NUnit, but it keeps generating the same number. I am using the following function for this purpose.
dim dCount As Integer = Math.Floor((High - Low + 1) * Rnd() + Low)
dim divName As String = "abc" & dCount

Below is a form which produces a graph, the idea is to produce 6 random numbers from a range (0,6) place the numbers in an array then use these numbers to produce columns on the graph, however at the moment it is using the numbers more than once, how can I get it to just use the values once only in the array.
Private Sub btnGraph_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnGraph.Click

I don't take programming lessons at school or anything, and I'm starting to (try to) teach myself about random things.Currently I'm making an app that has 3 functions:
-Random Integer (1 to 100)
-Random Answer (Yes or No, similar to a coin flip)
-Random Dice Roll (1 to 6)
How would I go about doing this?At the moment all I know about random numbers etc. is that I will need to do something along the lines of Dim dice As New Random or something like that, but, like I mentioned, I have no idea.I am well aware of the DIC rules that you won't write the code for me/do my "homework(?)" for me, and that's not what I'm asking.

I am generating an array of random numbers for for a class project (simple yahtzee game)I am comparing the output of the array and displaying a picture of each matching dice in a picture box.I would like to use check boxes to select a position of the array so it cannot be changed until the check boxes are clearedWhen the check box is checked, the value of the position in the array should not change.

how to use a Dim numbers() As Integer thats bout it here is my problem that iam facing :Use a one-dimensional array to solve the following problem: Read in 20 numbers, each of which is between 10 and 100, inclusive. As Each number is read, print it only if it is not a duplicate of a number already read. provide the "worst case" (in which all 20 numbers are different). use the smallest possible array to solve this problem.

I am having trouble in finding duplicate numbers in an array.the first one is to create an array with duplicates and then display the number that has been duplicated and how many times it has been duplicated.
Here is my uncompleted code:

arry(0) = 4
arry(1) = 44

I have been working on a pythagorean theorem calculator and am actually stuck on the final bit of code. What I am trying to do is check the values (integers) inside a listbox, remove duplicate number (both values), and input one of the values into a textbox.
Here is an example of what I am doing:
LISTBOX VALUES
2
2
3
[code]....
When the program runs, check listbox value #1 and listbox value #2, if listbox value #1 and #2 match (2 & 2), input that value (not both duplicates) into a variable, remove both of the duplicate values, continue checking the rest of the values, and finally multiply the leftover values. I am sure that sounds confusing. Here is what the final output will look like
LISTBOX VALUES
3
7

Basically, I want to divide two numbers together and they should be 2 random numbers from 1-12 (I have done that part) but, the answer should be a whole number (i.e. Integer, so no decimal points etc) So, I did the following:
' Initialize the random-number generator.
Randomize()
' Generate random value between 1 and 12.
Dim value5 As Integer = CInt(Int((12 * Rnd()) + 1))
[code]....
but the problem here is that the program crashes after only a few clicks on the button. So I guess the question is: How can I make the program generate two numbers (from 1-12) that when divided become a whole number?(Is there any code that may tell the random generator that I want the numbers to be even?-so all even numbers from 1-12?)

i have wrote a loop to search for duplicate numbers within a column in a database which i have got fine but when i find a duplicate i would like to get the all of the row so if 33 was a duplicate i would like to get the following row.

I have tried to do this buy use something i saw on msnd's website:
Dim foundRow() As Data.DataRow = customerDS.Tables("Details").Select("HNCNO Like '33%'")
However if i change the line to notice the i beside the like
Dim foundRow() As Data.DataRow = customerDS.Tables("Details").Select("HNCNO Like 'i%'")
but i get Index was outside the bounds of the array. Ok i know that means that there is nothing in my array. What i would like is to find the duplicate row associated i. you will probably understand me better when you see the code.

Dim customerDS As DataSet
