Random Numbers Displayed Instead Of Stored Integer?
Mar 12, 2012
I've used a numericupdown to select a number and then save it to a .dat file
When i try to display the integer in a listbox, it appears as a random sequence of numbers.
for example, if i input 200 into the numbericupdown, when displayed in the listbox, it is shown as 538976366
Is it an error with the properties with either the numericupdown or the listbox? or do you need to see my code?
let me know if you need any more information or code

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

how data is stored in a DB vs how it is displayed in a DataGridView, but i cant come up with a solution to my problem ...I have a DGV being filled by a Datatable. I have set the DGV Date column to format as "yyyy-MM-dd" and it shows that accordingly.
DataGridView1.Columns(9).DefaultCellStyle.Format = "yyyy-MM-dd"
I also have a sub that USED to take the DataTable that filled the DGV and used it to generate a CSV file. But since i had modified how the date was displayed in the DGV i decided to change the CSV Export to use the DGV instead of the DataTable.
Dim writer As System.IO.StreamWriter
writer = File.CreateText(PathToSaveFile)
For intRows As Integer = 0 To DGV.Rows.Count - 1
[code]....
My issue is that even though i changed the VIEW in the DGV to show me the date how i want it, the CSV does not take the displayed date when it writes the lines, it seems to still take the DB date, and then displays it as "dd/MM/yyyy". how am i supposed to tell the CSV Sub to change how the date is displayed in this file ?

I have an app that has been localized in the usual fashion (i.e., .resx files), which handles about 95% of the strings. However, I still need to localize some strings for category names that are stored in the database. I'd like to avoid adding 15 new columns named categoryname_ES, categoryname_FR, etc, and then pulling the right column dynamically. If there would be some way to pull the data, and then do a substitution in the code, I think that would be a little less messy. Maybe along the lines of:
go through gridview row by row if the language selected isn't English, look for this text value in a global resources file and replace it. Or is adding a lot of categoryname columns for each language just the way to go (ewww).

I'm a police officer and trying to write a program which will print the officers name, start and end dates and select a random road from an array that he/she will be responsible for during the time period. Right now I only have 6 entered to try and get the hang of this. It has a drop down list of persons names, a start date picker and an end date picker. The program will then display the name, start and end date and select a random road from the array. [code]...

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'm trying to do this division and the result to be displayed on a eight decimal number.
Dim r1 As Integer
Dim r2 As Double
r1 = Val(TextBox16.Text)
r2 = r1 / 60
TextBox18.Text = FormatNumber(r2, 8)
The value or R1 on this case is 273.4 but it varies according with the result obtained so I can not allocate a constant number to r1. The problem is the result that I am getting is 4,55000000 instead of 4.5566666

I know there has to be a simple way to do this but I'm not sure how the syntax would go. I need to generate a random number from 1 to 99. How do I do this? I have my attempt that failed below:
Private Sub LoadBoard()
Dim mynum As Integer = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99)
Storage.Slot1 = mynum(Int(Rnd() * 10 Mod 99))
End Sub

I wanted to generate random integer and put into array(9). My code is as follow:-
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Randomize()
Dim rand As New Random
[code]....
I wanted the results to be ans = 3412657846 But instead I get ten ans results. So that means the rand.Next generate ten integer to array(0) and so on.I just want one random integer in array(0) and so on....

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
[Code]....

In the player vs computer tic tac toe game I've been working on there are 2 boolean arrays (one for the computer and one for the player) that track which cells have been taken. When all other moves have been exhausted I would like the computer to play a random cell. To do this I am trying to gather the indexes of all False values from the 2 arrays and add them to another dynamic integer array. The computer will then choose randomly from the new array. The two Boolean arrays are plyrTaken and cmptrTaken. The dynamic array is occupied.
Here I declared the arrays:
Public Class Form1
Private occupied() As Integer
Private plyrTaken(8) As Boolean
Private plyrPairs(14) As Boolean
Here I got the dynamic array ready for use:
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
ReDim occupied(0)
And here is the code I have attempted:
For index As Integer = 0 To 8
If plyrTaken(index) = False And cmptrTaken(index) = False Then
ReDim Preserve occupied(UBound(occupied) + 1)
[Code] .....
In the last block of code I was just trying to print the contents of the array to a list box so I could see if it was working. Obviously, it's not. When one position is occupied the list box shows the occupied cell index with a Zero. This really shouldn't be there as I want only taken cell indexes to be sent to array and list box. When a second position is occupied 7 zeros are added to the list box. Kinda shows promise as 9 total cells - 2 is 7 but there should be index numbers other than zero to represent the cells that have been occupied.
Also, the indexes shouldn't keep adding on to the dynamic array I need a way to clear the array and resize it back to 0. I tried adding
Redim occupied(0)
to the top of the code but that didn't seem to work.

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 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

Randomise()

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?
