View 5 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]......
View 9 RepliesThe 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 am practicing using the drawing commands, and have gotten a grass background and black happy face that moves around the background.It's a 10x10 grid of 50 pixels.I want (at the moment, when i press enter) it to generate a random number of trees (15 ~ 25) at random locations on the background. The program doesn't freak out about anything, and the variables seem to be right (using stop commands) but it's not drawing anything. Here is the code for the "GenerateTrees" command I have for when I press enter.
Private Sub GenerateTrees()
NumberOfTrees = Int(Rnd() * 10) + 15
For i = 0 To NumberOfTrees - 1

I'm working on a little app which needs to recieve information from a script on a web server. I tried to have the vb.net app pole a php web page for a command every half of a second. This worked but, the app is streaming video and every time the app needs to pole the webpage the video stutter stops. I tried setting the pole timer to 5 seconds and still every 5 seconds the video stutters. I thought that maybe sockets would be the answer, so I looked for examples of vb.net socket servers and php socket clients. I tried implementing a solution but the php cannot seem to connect to the vb.net server. I googled around and saw that maybe php cannot communicate with a vb.net application.

View 2 RepliesI have a library that interacts with our phone system, ie, Hey phone, call this number for me. This library is used in one of our in house products. I would like to put this instead in a service, so that any of our in house products can send the service a message to place a phone call. So basically I want to communicate from a program built in .Net 3.5 with a service running on the same machine also built in the 3.5 framework. I have done some work with WCF and was considering using this but thought I would ask what others have done or would do.

If a guest moves to a different table I have to change a large number of variables (number of guests served by server, table set to empty, new table sat...etc etc.)?
