It is giving me that the expression must be expected. I have to choose and display the fifth vowel from the list of 200 random words.
I am trying to figure out how to count the words that start with a vowel and also count the words that start with a consonant. I have tried several different ways on trying to do this but no luck. I have worked on this for a couple days already. Very frustrated I need some assistance with this issue
Here is the code I have so far:[code...]
I am trying to get a random word in VB and was wondering if it was possible to do this through the internet some how? For example If there was a website that literally just contains random words (anything over 100 will do) and I could just select a random word from it? I can create random letters and numbers but I want a word that would be in a dictionary.
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to make a form that will read my wordlist. txt (one word or phrase per line) then using a timer, insert one word randomly selected from the list, and display it in textbox1 where it will remain until another timer changes the word. The word in the textbox will display for a random time 1min to 7 min, then the textbox displays another word randomly selected from the word list.
View 1 Replieschanging the way the site search is done from just search a phrase as one string to searching a phrase "as multiple words" search. For example, if I search "cute puppy" right now, it will search it for "cute puppy" as phrase and won't match just "cute" and "puppy". The way the search is implemented is by passing a search phrase to a Stored Procedure in SQL Server.So now, I need to change to site search so when "cute puppy" is searched, it will search two words.... "cute" and "puppy" instead of just "cute puppy". Below is how the store procedure is implemented

How would you select a random word from an array list. Here is my coding:
'Create a sub which reads the words from the file and selects a random word.
Sub ReadWordsFromFile(ByVal fileName As String, ByRef RandomWord As String)
'Create a random number generator.
Dim RandomNumber As New Random
Dim words As New ArrayList
[Code]...
1. Is it possible to have vb.net piece together a legitimate word of a specified length, or do I need to have a massive word list, and generate a random number to pick a word from this list?
2. I also need to separate each letter of the word and display an image for each letter, and each letter going to the next based on a timer, and can also repeat on a button click.
Eg: TWO would end up displaying T W O, a few seconds apart from each other.
I am making a program which generates Tambola Tickets. The program reads a list of movie names from a file and it randomly selects x no. of names per ticket and writes those names to a file.
For e.g. imagine there are 24 movie names. The program has to print 10 tickets and each ticket will habe 12 names.
I have written a program which does that but I think my random no. generator is repeating a few movie names pretty frequently.
plus I have to ensure that no one ticket can have a name repeated.
Dim NoTickets as Short = 10, Total as byte = 24 ' total = total movies in array
' Duplicate is function that ensures that no number is repeated
' MovieList is normal array with movie names

I am using VB2010 and currently have a random letter and number applicaation but for some reason students dont seem to have the ability to type these in correctly!Does anyone have some code to put words from text file or string into a text box.

I have a text document. i want to click a button and 10 random words out of the 196000 words shown in a textbox or listbox.
View 5 RepliesI currently have a list of words in a text file sorted in to alphabetical order and put into lower case, but I would like to be able to also display the line numbers on which these words are associated with.. but only one instance of.
For example,
"This is a random text
file that I
have just made
up this second"
[Code].....
As you can see above, I would like to show that "this" for example appears on line 1 and 4. Hopefully tabbed so that it keeps a nice look to it.
I'm trying to create a program that produces random sentences as output. With five arrays of strings, one each for nouns, adjectives, verbs, prepositions, and articles. Each array should hold several words for that part of speech. Like, the Articles array could hold the strings "the" and "a"; the Nouns array could hold "Martian", "baby", "skunk","computer" and "mosquito"; the Prepositions array could hold "around", "through", "under", "over", and "by"; and so on.
It's supposed to generate sentences by randomly choosing eight words (randomly generating eight array indices) from these arrays, always constructing sentences by using the parts of speech in the following order: article, adjective, noun, verb, preposition, article, adjective, noun. Also, the code should be properly modularized so that the code to generate each part of speech is not repeated.
complete coding newbie, but I'm trying to make a program that displays how many people are in a telephone queue by reading from a log file. and havign a timer update the number every 3rd second.
View 14 RepliesI was wondering how would i make a search kind of thing, for example if string1 contains all the words in string2 words. like a search(not just if string1 contains string 2).
it should work something like this:
If string1 is "an apple" and if string2 is "djsjfsfg apple sdfsfssdfs" then string3 would be nothing
BUT
If string1 is "an apple" and if string2 is "djsjfsfg apple sdfsfssdfs an ashdfjdsgfsdgfj" then string3 would be "djsjfsfg apple sdfsfssdfs an ashdfjdsgfsdgfj"
I'm attempting to setup a search function from a string a user types. (ex: "John Doe" or "Doe, John") I was thinking I would use Replace(SearchString, ",", "") to get rid of the commas the user might enter, and then use Split(SearchString, " ") to get all the words into an array. Once they're in the array I would execute a Stored Procedure on each of the terms and build a DataTable with the results.
Below is what I'm wanting to use for executing my stored procedure.
oCommand = DataAccess.GetSQLCommand("MyStoredProcedure", CommandType.StoredProcedure, SourceServer.ConnectionLocal)
oCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("@MySearchString", SearchString)
[Code]....
Now I'm thinking the "SearchString" I will assign while looping through my array of words... but this doesn't seem like the right way to do this. Maybe it is but I don't know how to append my next result to the previous DataTable either.
search.png What do i need to put in the search button so the words that i will put in the textboxes on the rightside will show the results on the left? the table name is Customers..i dont know how to put them in textboxes..
View 4 RepliesI have a textbox with a large amount of data, but I am trying to extract only the following into an array: only 3 or 4 letter, uppercase words. The goal is to find all stock symbols within a document.
For example, in this post, if I were to type "MSFT", regex would extract MSFT because it is a 4 letter, uppercase word.
I have an array of words that must be sorted alpabetically using selection sort, I must then be able to search the array with a binary search. I just can't get my head around how you would go about doing it. I know that the words must be first sorted into alphabetical order. Here is the code for selection sort with numbers:
Dim pass As Integer
Dim count As Integer
Dim minmax As Integer
Dim temp As Integer
[code]....
How would you apply that to an array of strings?

View 1 RepliesI have a textbox which has about 120 lines of text but this can vary. I want to search for an array of words, like Boeing, Airbus, Saab etc there might be 3 options there might be 5 options in this array that i'm looking for. My question is how can I search the textbox and highlight all these words? Similar to (Control + F) in IE8. I've looked at InStr but am unsure if this is what I'm after as it does not seem to work for me.
View 4 RepliesHow to search and replace words in listbox items.
just can't seem to work it out
searching a database using multiple words from a textbox showing in gridview.
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Width="382px" AutoPostBack="True"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" style="height: 26px" Text="Button" />
[Code]....
It works fine, i click button and the gridview shows all the right records. The problem is when i use more then 1 word in textbox. it shows nothing. The record in the database field may have several words, so i need to search using all words in textbox.
If I can generate a list of random integer with a click of the button and put the results in a list box using VB.Net but how do I randomly change several integer number generated by button 1 by clicking button 2? How I retain the results of button1 and change the results when clicking button2?I try before but the two button function code cannot relate to one another.
View 1 RepliesI'm using a program see here: Visual Basic Regular Expression Question. I enter letters and the program returns all possible combinations from list. I want change this line of code...
Dim result = fruits.Where(Function(fruit) Not fruit.Except(letters).Any())
If I have this list:
Dim fruit as List(Of string) from {"apple","orange","pear","banana"}
And I input "p a p l e r" then it would return "apple" and "pear", but if I enter "a p l e r" then it would return just "pear". The idea is to return all words, which can be made of entered letters without duplicating any single letter. How to optimize this Linq code?
I have the following code which takes input from a text box and then writes everything to a file...
