I have been wanting to start a new project for a while but have been putting it off now because of a few thing's.
1) It is something i have never tried before.
2) Right now the probability side of the application would be beyond me.
How ever i say to myself. I have no time limit it needs to be completed in. I would be expanding my knowledge along the way, and it seems like an interesting project to be working on.
The idea it self is similar to drug wars(it's only a game so no comments )
Depending on a new day, different location the price will vary. How ever there is obviously a set likely hood range the price will fall in, but obviously can go above/below this. Also need to take into consideration random events. Police raids, Being attacked, loosing inventory etc.
I am having a bit of difficulty figuring out a way to calculate the weighted probability (weighted "random" numbers) and apply it directly to the selection of a given line of a text file. In short, I wish to have a text file, where each line has it's own probability of being chosen (obviously not all would be the same). I wish the probability to be dynamic, and based off of thirds. As in, say I have 9 lines in a given text file, and I wish to weight the probability of the first three to be significantly higher than the 2/3 and the 3/3 portion of the text document.
Example: Line 1 20% Line 2 20% Line 3 20% Line 4 10% Line 5 10% Line 6 10% Line 7 3.3% Line 8 3.3% Line 9 3.3%
With the above logic, first 1/3 of the lines = 60% sum total, middle 2/3 = sum total of 30%, and the last 3 are a sum total of 9.9% repeating. How would I go about achieving this dynamic assignment of probability, and choosing them randomly, based off of the given weight?
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.
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.
Public Class frmMain
Private Sub btnExit_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnExit.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.
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 want to know how to generate 7 "differents" random numbers.
I need to use a tab() with 7 entries and verify(with a loop?) if the generated number is or not present in the the table, if not then increment a counter by 1 and add the number in the table and increment the table position by 1 for the next randomized number.
Im not sure how to do the verification, so far all i have is a function i made for the random number between min and max:
Private Function randGen(ByVal min As Integer, ByVal max As Integer) Dim random As New Random() Dim i As Integer
I want to get random numbers between 0 to 100..But i do not want the random number to be repeated.
Private Sub Form2_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim objRand As New Random objRand.Next(0, 100) End Sub
Suppose first time random numb generated is 10..Next time if same random number is generated,den i want to get the other random number..I want to get all the numbers b/w 1 to 100..but only one time

i am trying to create a messagebox which brings up four random percentages which add unto 100%, i can create the messagebox with[code]messagebox.show ("") {icode]
I am writing an application that needs several random numbers. Each time I use the Rnd() function, do I need to precede it with the Randomize() initializer?Or can I just use Randomize() once at the beginning of the code?Examples: Do I need to do it this way?
'm attempting a program and need to generate 10 random numbers between 1 and 52. However all the numbers must be different. I'm trying this in a For Loop. I'm not terribly amazing at this so all I have so far is:
Dim B, I, J, max, min, card() As Interger max = 52 min = 1 Randomise()
[Code].....
What am I doing wrong and what is the ultimately simple solution I know the internet can provide for me?
This code is in VB6.0I have 28 numbers in sequence (eg 1-28), they are randomly generated and displayed in a label. I dont want a duplicate number displayed in the label. Pls how do I do this. Below is how I generate numbers at random. Now I want to make sure there is no duplicate number displayed in the label.[code]
i have a few questions about generating random numbers:1) is it possible for the programme to generate a random number that it has previously generated (i.e could it produce the same number more than once?)2) can you specify what numbers to generate? e.g only whole numbers up to 1000?
I have a problem regarding the generation of random numbers in vb.net..I have code like this!!it generates the random number but both the numbers are same for my program the should not be same!![code]
I'm working on a Bingo game that generates a random letter and number.
Dim RandN As New Random() Dim randnumber = RandN.Next(1, 30) Dim RandL As New Random() Dim randletter = RandL.Next(1, 5)
All that works, but I'd like it not to repeat a combination. Any tips on how to do that?
Also the random numbers tend to be repetitive and the random letter is never 5. I think the random number has been 30 before but I can't be sure. Is there a way to fix that or just a better way to do the random numbers?
I have a random number generator, an upper bound and a lower bound. I need to use the random number generator to get that many numbers between the upper and lower and then calculate the perecentages of how many are odd, even, etc.
Ive got 16 cards to make 8 pairs (simple) ive got it to detect a pair by piccard1.image.TAG what i need to do is though, make the 'tag' part random, 0-15 so i can give each card a tag, but it has to be unique and i cant make it give 16 different number.
I have created a main form.. added 7 forms to the porject.. I want to select the forms at random plus count the forms as they are slected and when the count = 7.. a messgabebox should be displayed.. the forms seem to be selected at random each time i click the next buttoon as i have called the frmmain.random() method from the main form for each click butotn on each form.. but the count doesnt work and all 7 forms dont open.. sometimes 1 form opens then goes back to main screen or it goes past 7. but never shows the message. not sure how to go about it. Also im coding in VB using visual studio 08.
I want to get random numbers between 0 to 100..But i do not want the random number to be repeated.

Suppose first time random numb generated is 10..Next time if same random number is generated,den i want to get the other random number..
Is there a way for a event to generate 12 random numbers between a negative and positive integer (ex. -5 to 5) and apply each of them to an individual declared variable, to then be used in another event?
