Create A List Box Of 25 Randomly Generated 0s Or 1s - When Put The Loop In, It Only Repeats The Same Random Number?
Mar 25, 2012
Beginning VB 2010, had a project that requires us to create a list box of 25 randomly generated 0s or 1s. Problem is when I put the loop in, it only repeats the same random number, not different one each loop. What am I doing wrong?This is the code I have so far...Code in Question:
'Declare new random object
Dim RandomGenerator As New Random
intRandomNumber = RandomGenerator.Next(0, 2)[code]......

I am using some arrays that are pre-filled and I am having a random number generated between 0-10. That random number will then go in to all 5 arrays and pull the item from that location. I think try to take the sentence that is generated into another string. Once that is complete I then go through the final array to pull all the sentences and concatenate them together.
Currently I've only been able to get 1 sentence to print out of 5...a fresh pair of eyes would prob see where I am going wrong...I've been at this for awhile and wouldn't mind some advice to where I am going wrong.
Public Class MainForm
Private Sub MainForm_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

I dont have anything to handle it when its full but it never gets there. I need it to pick a random number from 1 to 60 that doesn't repeat but i keep getting a system.stackoverflowexception and it will repeat numbers.
num = RandomNumber.Next(usedcountries.Length - 1)
'TextBox1.Text = num
If first = True Then
usedcountries(y) = num[code]..............

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.

Below is a form which produces a graph, the idea is to produce 6 random numbers from a range (0,6) place the numbers in an array then use these numbers to produce columns on the graph, however at the moment it is using the numbers more than once, how can I get it to just use the values once only in the array.
Private Sub btnGraph_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnGraph.Click
txtAns.Text = ""
g.Clear(Me.BackColor)
g.DrawLine(Pens.Black, 50, 70, 50, 420)

I'm converting a user generated list box to an array and then generating a user defined number of random strings and placing it in a textbox.The code I have works fine as it will generate the number of random strings the user wants, except sometimes a line is blank at the top of the list but is counted as a string.

Basically I am trying to get my timer to stop when it reaches a randomly generated number.
I have dimmed num2 as integer (num2 is timer)
I have dimmed num3 as integer (num 3 is random number)
I have done num3 = randNum.Next (0, 8)
My timer is working perfectly and counts from 0 -8. My randomly generated number works too, so how do i get the timer to stop when it reaches the random num?
I have tried;
if num2 = num3 then
timer1.enabled = false
But that didn't work

I've got a global random type variable, let's call it rRandom.In my code, I generate a random number like below:
Dim iRandom As Integer = rRandom.Next(0, x)
9 out of 10 times iRandom is 0, the other time it was 1. The code isn't on a timer, it happens when I do something (say clicking a button), so the frequency of the code being called is about 2-3 seconds, I say this because I've had similar issues when generating random numbers really fast in a timer, or with a for loop IIRC.X is a variable that, presently, starts at 3, and will decrease until 0, in which it'll return back to 3. Obviously, if X is 0, iRandom will be 0, but it shouldn't be 0 all the time.I'm declaring the variable globally because I remember, again, having similar issues using local variables, idk whether I should be or not.

Basically, I'm not sure if I'm thinking along the correct lines when trying to break this down. The program is supposed to display the question "How much is _ x _?" with _ being a randomly generated number between 0-9 which I have in a label. The student inputs the answer and clicks the "Answer" button. If he gets it right, the label below outputs "Very Good!" and automatically puts a new question in the above label. If the student gets it incorrect, the output is "No, Please try again." and the student keeps trying until the question is answered correctly.
My method of thinking on this is that the random.object generator is input first so the question with the numbers are output in the first label. Then, under the Sub answer.button, enter the statements that will either check and refer to the above statements to get a new question or have the student try again until it's answered correctly. One of the other criteria for this is that I have to use a function for the calculation. Would the function statement, because it has to return a value, go before the answer.button code or after?

I am trying to generate a random number during testing using NUnit, but it keeps generating the same number. I am using the following function for this purpose.
dim dCount As Integer = Math.Floor((High - Low + 1) * Rnd() + Low)
dim divName As String = "abc" & dCount

Right so my generator is working, but I now want to take the numbers that it generates and add them to a list of generated numbers. So you can monitor what numbers have been generated. then ideally a way to exclude these numbers from being generated again.

I am doing a Coin Toss program for school and I'm getting my butt kicked by this thing. The following are the instructions exactly as my instructor gave them:Use the random number generator (see the code below) to simulate a coin toss. First ask the user for the number of repetitions. Next, set up a For loop to execute that many times. Each time you enter the loop, call the random number next method. Assume that a random value <= 5 is considered a "Heads"; a value >5 is a "Tails". That is, if the random value is <= 5, add one to an accumulator named intNumHeads. If the random value is >5 add one to an accumulator named intNumTails. When the loop finished, output the number of heads and the number of tails in a text field with appropriate labels.Dim intRandom As New Random()Dim intNumber As IntegerintNumber = intRandom.Next(0, 9) In my application I have the click event of the "Flip Coin" button coded as follows:
Public

Private Sub btnFlip_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

I'm trying to make a Bulls and Cows type game, I was able to do it fairly easily with javaScript, but VB is killing me. I can get the array 5 slots long with random numbers, unfortunately they're all repeats. when I try getting no repeats I run into infinite loops, exponentially increasing array lengths, and just plain old arrays with 5 numbers randomly generated, but with repeats.
I'm trying to do this with loops, in JS I did it using regular expressions
Here's an example of my code.

i wanted to create a random number generator that iterates through a series of number between an upper and lower bound. say between 1 and 100. Basically I want the number generator to pick the numbers randomly and then display them until all 100 numbers are picked without any duplicates. so thats easy I can code that. But what I don't know is how to show those numbers in the order they are generated on a windows form. So i have basically a variable that I will let be changed 100 times (or however many times I want, I don't want their to be a size constraint just using 100 as an example) and each time the number is generated I want it displayed on screen (in a list or something not sure what. Hopefully some type of scrollable list) and each successive number also to be displayed in same format beneath it so that I can see the list in its entirety. What type of form control do i use for that? I could do messagebox.show for each iteration but then user is required to hit ok after each iteration and that would obviously be a bad idea if user selected a large number to work through. Anyways, code isn't exactly necessary just point me in the right direction, i.e.what control (if any) to use.how to format the change in data?

the goal i want to accomplish is when the user presses a button, "moneyamount" increases by a random number generated. the problem i am having is that after the action is finished the script does not seem to save the new value and always starts at zero. here is the script:
Private Sub button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles dojob1button.Click
Dim moneyamount As Integer = moneyamount + Int(Rnd() * 10)
moneylabel.Text = "$" & moneyamount

I have two images on my VB pictureBox one of it is randomly generated on the picBox(to any location) and the other is a normal image that can move around the picBox area using left right up and down buttons. The problem is that when ever the normal picture gets to the random one, it goes under the random picture and the task is to restrict the normal picture from going into the walls of the random one. when it gets to the wall, top, bottom left and right, it should stop moving.

I've seen a few other people ask this question and have tried the responses that they have had with no luck.
I am trying to use the randomize command to generate a truly random number. What I am doing is reading an access table to get the number of records, then seed the randomize statement with that number of records with the top range for a random number. I then use the number to select the record I want from that table via it's ID number. My code for doing that is working great.... except that it is always calling on the same record each time through the loop. Here is the code.

I am setting up a game for my final visual basic program in my computer programming class, and it is supposed to compare what you type into a textbox to a randomly generated password, and then return whether the last character you entered had a higher, lower or the exact same ascii value as the corresponding character in the randomly generated password. Well, in order to test it, I set up labels to compare the two characters... when you type in ALT + 125, the ascii value returns 125, as it should, and it says that the ascii value of the correct character is 142. I typed in ALT + 142, and the character's ascii value, according to what the label puts out, is 196... obviously its converting dec into hex or oct or something... but how do I fix it?I can also tell you that when I typed in 196 to see if it was reversed or something stupid like that, it printed that the ascii value was 49... what's up with that?!

I'm trying to shuffle a Euchre Deck and it works but I feel like I'm cheating. Is there a more concise way to randomize a list of numbers 1 - 24 and have no repeats? ex. 14, 3, 18, 23...
Dim Deck() As String = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24}
Dim A As New Random
Dim B As Integer = A.Next(0, 24)
Deck(B) = "9 of Clubs"

learning about loops (still a beginner) in VB.net. I have got the below code and basically it is meant to stop the loop once it reaches a number above 20. Now, the problem is that it does stop after number 20 but the last number that is displayed in the list is always above 20..... how I can stop it showing the last number as above 20?
