Ok im making a program that throws three dice at once. Several results end with a score but a few result in a no score. in the case of a no score (Example: the dice land on 4,1,6) i want the dice to be thrown again. If there's 3 no scores in a row then it counts as a loss.I have no clue how to get it to repeat after a no score or to limit i
Current code sample:
Dim oppscore As Integer
Randomize()

I am writing a matching program, and need 24 objects to randomly appear, each twice, across 48 spaces. I figured the best way for me to do this would be to assign the positions a number 1 through 48. but the problem is I can't find a way to generate a random number sequence in visual basic 9 .netI found many examples in visual basic .net but the conversion doesn't work. If not some code, many some example programs that either use a random number sequence or randomly sets the position of objects.
View 1 RepliesI have built a blog platform in VB.NET where the audience are very young, and for some reason like to express their commitment by repeating sequences of characters in their comments.
Examples:
Hi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
..and so on.
I don't want to filter this out completely, however, I would like to shorten it down to a maximum of 5 repeating characters or sequences in a row.I have no problem writing a function to handle a single repeating character. But what is the most effective way to filter out a repeating sequence as well?This is what I used earlier for the single repeating characters
Private Shared Function RemoveSequence(ByVal str As String) As String
Dim sb As New System.Text.StringBuilder
sb.Capacity = str.Length

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.
View 4 RepliesI'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?
Why is my application messing up? I'm trying to make non-repeating random numbers and then insert them into a listbox. Check my code out:

The batch section should generate a new random value and write it every time it do the loop, but...It is repeating values. There are more than one line with the same value. What I'm doing wrong?
For a school project I need to create an application one element of that it puts 14 names into a random order, I figured the best way to do this was with an array and a for/next loop (it cannot repeat the names) each name would be declared as a string with the name of the variable being a number between 1,14. Then there would be a text box relating to each index of the array, I am sure you get what I mean. However, my for/next loop seems to be getting stuck and causing the application to halt and I cannot seem to work out why.
Here is my code.
Public Class Form1
Dim iNumber As Integer
Dim arrNumber(0 To 13) As Integer
Public Sub Form1_Load(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
[Code] .....
I have yet to write in the section which converts the random numbers into the names, as I discovered this error whilst debugging the for/next loop.

I have 16 cities (those would be my string variables, right?) that I want to appear on my 16 labels in random order without repeating when I click the button. So basically label 1 can be any of my 16 cities, label 2 then will be any of 15 left available cities, and so on and so on.
I have a datagridview that is being loaded from a dataset. This dataset is the result of a SQL Statement (which could be my problem). The MS Access Client table is the main table and contains 2 records, however, after loading the dataset, the row count is 3.

Public Function LoadClientDataSet()
Try
strSQL = "SELECT A.clientID, A.name, B.phone, B.zipCode, B.stateCD " & _

If say in my datatable i have one column called order number and one column called line. Whats the best way to keep repeating the order number into everyrow, whilst incrementing the line number until i add a new value in the order number column.
So it'd go like this..

4568________1
4568________2
4981________1
there are 8 text boxes where user should put 8 answers, but when he type one answer in one text box it cant be found in some other text box.Basically when button is clicked there should be check for repeated answers.

View 24 RepliesI've read numerous posts and threads about random number generation, but I havent' run across this.If I generate a bunch of random numbers, the results are radically different if I create a new Random generator for each number than if I use on Random generator for all the numbers. The results are much more consistent and evenly distributed if I use the same Random generator.I would have thought the opposite,because creating a new Random generator each time should reduce the number of random repetitions, if a different time slice is used to create the random number.[code]......

I have a networkstream (using C#/VB.NET). while on reading values coming like this:
&% 68 kg K A&% 23 kg K A&% 174 kg K A &% 68 kg
&% 34 kg K A&% 2334 kg K A&% 68 kg K A &% 68 kg K A
&% 2348 kg K A&% 78 kg K A&% 28 kg K A&% 68 kg
The numerical(weight) value will be continuously varying.
Every time i am reading the starting of the stream differs. But the pattern remains the same. How to split that into '&% 78 kg K A' which represents one set.
How to extract the weight value from this stream using Regex or any other methods?

i just want to know if there is a way to implement constraint for parameters with a repeating pattern. For that i meant something like this
ParamArray pattern as Integer()
if i need an integer, and any amount of the "pattern" (the pattern here is one integer). so basically the pattern accepts 1 integer and multiples of 1 integer, meaning 2 integers, 3 integers so is there a way to upgrade this so we can have this pattern:
Integer, Boolean
and any valid combinations for this pattern will include
Integer, Boolean, Integer, Boolean
Integer, Boolean, Integer, Boolean, Integer, Boolean
etc, etc
currently the only way i can think of is to wrap Integer and Boolean as 1 object and apply pattern 1, but i was searching for a better alternative?
I have an array that hold 6 random number, then this numbers are sorted from smallest to highest. My question is: How would I go about replacing any repeating numbers with a different random number. I.e. 1 3 7 2 2 9 is sorted into 1 2 2 3 7 9, but I would like to see one of the 2's replaces with a different number (that it is not currently in the array).
I have no code for this part - but the code for making the random number, storing them and sorting them works fine.
Basically I have 7 labels on a form that I randomize into numbers between 0 and 49. However some of the numbers repeat, like this 1,4,8,14,14,50,12. [Code]
View 2 RepliesI have a combobox that I am populating with the contents of a dataset (from an access database). The field that it is showing has lots of values that repeat. I want to remove the repeats of the data so that only unique records are shown in the combo box. I imagine this can be done with the SQL for the data adaptor? I tried: "SELECT type FROM products GROUP BY type" and "SELECT DISTINCT type FROM products" but both still showed the repeating records.
