Select Random Items With Parameters?
Dec 20, 2010
I'm working on a program that will randomly select a loadout(weapon, perks, etc), but the user enters their current level to get the loadout. This is important because certain guns unlock at certain levels, so i don't want someone getting something they can't use.
I'm not sure what the best way of approaching this is. All i can think of is either getting a random item, checking if the user's level is high enough then if it's not high enough do it again.

I would like to make a program that generates a safe passwords for people to use. I want to make the passwords vary in length, include numbers, letters and upper case letters. I've been able to write code that prints out a random string but it includes unrecognized characters for most passwords. How would I write the code to create a random string that has parameters? (in this case upper case lower case letters and numbers).

I have a little challenge. I have a report that I declared a parameter called Department that has default values like this: [Code] The problem is that when I test this (with CR10 or on web), and I select multiple values, the thing does not show the values for the multiple values. It only works when I select a single department. What should I do?

I just want to select 1 random record from my database for example in my table1 i have a,b,c,d,e,f,g then everytime i click the button in my program it will output randomly between a to g then i can add another record from my database and if I make it a to x it will randomly choose between a to x, the random doesnt have any conditions.
Right now i've found some codes that will be very useful but i cant modify it so it will be connected to my database.
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim DT1 As New DataTable
DT1.Columns.Add("SN1")
DT1.Columns.Add("NAME1")

I have an array with 280 items in it. I only want 140 of those, so I want to pick them at random. So I need to generate a random number between 0 and the source array's getupperbound property. I think. Is there a more suitable way to pluck an item from an array. I wonder if there's a way to ensure that you don't choose the same item more than once. I suppose I could randomly sort the source array and choose the first 140 items, that would ensure I don't get a repeat item. But could be inefficient if the source array is much larger than the destination array, because I'd be shuffling more values than I need to shuffle. I suppose it's a sampling problem.

If I have say 5 numbers: 1, 29, 53, 95, 103 What would be the VB.net code for randomly selecting a number of those 5.
i.e) The random number has to be 1, 29, 53, 95, or 103 and has to be randomly generated.
I've tried using the Int(Rnd() * 104), but I do not know how to make it choose only these 5 numbers!

I am wondering how i would go about taking multiple items (randomly) from a listbox and displaying them in a label!Now this listbox wouldn't have to be visible, maybe i can do it without it even being a listbox?I want to have 25 labels and each one recalls a random value from the list (doesnt matter about being unique and the list will contain about 20-30 items)Im just a bit stumped on how to do it as ive done some looking into it but most people are asking for randomized numbers or unique items where as i need randomized items from a list which aren't unique!

I have a picture box which reads in an image from a folder to display, instead of having the usual boring image I thought it may be nice to have a number of images in the folder and let my vb.net program randomly pick one out to use.

so I am working on a program with items entered into a listbox. Then when the user clicks a button it will randomize the listbox items in just a random order obviously. I have tried adding it to an array and everything but I ended up just having to start over now because I couldn't find a solution. I can save the contents and everything I know how to do that it's just randomizing the items that I am struggling with. I have searched high and low and have yet to find a conclusion to my problem.
