Randomizing Program - Making A Program Which Generates A Random Number Between 1 And 10
Oct 20, 2011
I am making a program which generates a random number between 1 and 10 and when 7 appears it is suppose to tell you how many tries it took to get the number 7 and then end the application. This is the code I have used:
CODE:
This code only generates the number 7 and exits the application, each time i click the random button but i want it to show the other number it randomizes too for example 1 2 3 4 .. etc, if u dont understand, please try it, but im trying to say, when i clikc random it just says number 7 (does randomizing in background) and tells you how much tries it took but i want it to show the other number it randomized also and when 7 appears, then exit the program

I got a little program that generates a random line of text from a .txt file and all is working well, at least for the most part.
On occasion I get an error message popup saying "Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter name: Index."
Here's my code:
CODE:
The last bit is where the random number is generated, which I am guessing where the problem itself is, but am unsure as to how to fix it...

I'm making a program that generates a picture of armor from a website, this armor is the armor a player is wearing on a game called halo 3. My problem is that I have the list of armor for the two races in the game in the resources and I need to know if this would be the right
Head.items.addrange(my.resources.SpartanH) Head is the combobox SpartanH is the name of the text file in my resources, if I've got my code all wrong, will someone please correct me?

Making a program that generates random numbers for a "Lottery" (really for homework). Four different types of games and must show up on the GUI when click generate. My question is do you have to have different dim randomObject As New Random() for every Sub to produce different numbers? Every single type of game has different range of number. The Sub needs to return the results back as a string. If I request the method each time will I get a different number back from the range? Here is what I have but just so lost.
Public Class LotteryNumberGenerator
Dim randomObject As New Random()
Private Sub genButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As

I'm Trying to make a piece of software where You enter a number and the computer measures the length of the number, and then generates random numbers to match the human number. It will then count the number of guesses and the time taken. However it always comes up that there was a infinite loop "An unhandled exception of type 'System.StackOverflowException' occurred in System.Windows.Forms.dll". I have searched up how to do this and I can't seem to find out how. I think I just put my wording wrong when looking it up. My Software Has Has 2 TextBox, 2 Buttons, 6 labels (4 just to make it user friendly) and a timer.
Here is the Code:
Public Class Form1
Dim TimeTaken As Integer
Dim GuessesTaken As Integer

I'm supposed to make an app where computer generates a random number using a function and then the user has to guess the number. If they get it right, they see a picture.... If they get it wrong the loop keeps going until ten guesses are up.. I'm running into quite a few problems...
1. I don't know how to tell if the photo will show up if the number is right because right now I have it set to false in the form, so it dosen't show up but in my loop I included the code that SHOULD allow it to show up if both numbers are the same.... Not sure if this is correct...
2. I have a textbox that is supposed to keep track of the number of guesses but the message automatically becomes Game Over and the guesses go up to 11 as soon as I click the Are You Right Button?
3. When I try to debug, my app freezes and I don't know why...

I am trying to write a random number function that can just be called from my main module to generate different random numbers. I have tried this several different ways and I am having odd results. Approximately 19 times out of 20 the numbers come back exactly the same, but approximately 1 in 20 they come back as two different numbers. Im using Visual Basic Studio 2008. Here is the code I have so far, or rather, the current version of my many tests I have been running to try and figure it out. Sometimes it takes many runs of the program before the two seperate numbers apear.I've been researching it and have come up with nothing so far.I know I could put them in the module section as two different randoms and it works, but I get extra points if i use a couple classes in my program.This is the main module.
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim randomNumOne As New RandNum[code]...........

I've created code that generates a random number and validates the users guess to see if its correct. I think the code is good but i'm not 100% sure. I need to add additional pieces to the code and i'm not sure where or how to do it. allow the user 10 guesses. after 10 guesses disable the ability to make more guesses if the 10th guess is wrong count each guess entered & display the count as it increments display each guess along with its returned messaeg into a list box. when the user gets correct answer provide a box to allow them to play again. Re-initialize variables back to their starting status.
a. If the user correctly guesses the number in less than 5 guesses display "Either you know the secret or you got lucky!" in a message box. b. If the user correctly guesses the number in 5, 6, or 7 guesses, display "Ah Ha! Do you know the secret?" in a message box. c. If the number of guesses is 8 to 10, then display "Try to do better next time." d. If the number of guesses exceeds 10, then display "You have taken too many guesses."

I've been working on a program that generates a batch file, then when you press a button, it executes that batch file. There are multiple batch files attached to each item in the list box.
[code]...
The only thing that it does when I press the button, is starts the batch file, then goes to function searchtitle, which executes the batch file again when it finds out it didn't work properly.The button text doesn't change, none of the items are being added to my first list box, and I can't do anything to the window after pressing the button. It constantly opens the batch file every 5 seconds or so.

I am currently working on a family project which is based on "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" show. There is a huge diffrence between the show and my project. My project is a christmas edition and the goal is not to get money or something, since I will not add it... Erhmm... Let me get to the point. I have already designed a layout and scripted some things. I have about thirty questions but I do not want them to always spawn in the same array, if you know what I mean. I want the program to randomly choose one of those thirty questions and NEVER choose the same question in the same program run. By the way, there are four options on my project: A, B, C and D. I have got everything, I just need a code.

I have written this code for my class. I just can't figure out what is wrong with it. What the program does is set a random number in memory then a guessing box input tells if it is too high or too low or correct. I set it up so the min and max numbers can be changed. What am I doing wrong. You don't even have to tell me the code I just want to get it working

I have the following code which extracts the contactcode from a table in a database;
[Code]...
Code: lblUniqueID.Value() = (RandomPassword.Generate(4, 6)) Now, I want to compare the contactcode values extracted from the database and the value stored in lblUniqueID.Value(). If the random password is similar to one of the contactcode then generate another RandomPassword IF NOT then place the value to another label called lbltransfer.text.
I'll insert that value to the database.. The idea is extract all the contactcodes(these are the random passwords already generated and stored) from the database. Compare with the new generated password if it exists then create another one if not then store it in a label called lbltransfer.text.

I need to write a program that requests a high number and a low number from the user, then the program searches the array and finds all elements within the two numbers. The program is used to search for past presidents, so if I type 43 for low number and 44 for high number, the program will display:
George Walker Bush
Barack Hussein Obama
I think I have an idea of how to search up to a certain point, but not to stop at a certain point....Here is the code that I have for that particular sub procedure:

Private Sub btnDisplayRqst_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnDisplayRqst.Click
Dim sr As IO.StreamReader = IO.File.OpenText("PRESIDENTS.TXT")

I used Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 and i am having trouble making it to where i can make a screen that a video can be played in. I mean i know i have to code it to call if from a folder but i do not know how to set up the form so i can make my own program. My teacher said that there used to be a thing where you just put in on the from and it did it for you is there a special thing you have to download to do that or do you have to actually go through and code it yourself. I do not want to be given code i just want to know the best way of starting my project whether it is making a thing so that i can play the videos

What would be the best way to make a Windows .NET application be the only program that can be used on a computer? I have come across timers or events to switch windows back to a window with matching text and some api32 calls to make a form top most.
Is it possible to make an application like the windows lock screen where nothing can be done except that what is on screen? I want to block users from doing other things and only let administrators get to the desktop.

I am making a program that is very simple, but I'm have problems with it. It runs like this:Theres a textbox and you enter in any amount you want.Next to that there are three radio buttons, deposit, check and service charge.If you enter in 100 in the transaction text box, and check the deposit radio button, and hit "Calculate" it will display 100 (in a total display box); hit calculate again, it will display 200, then 300, etc..Now lets say you keep 100 in the text box, but you check either "service charge" or "check" and hit calculate then it will MINUS the amount in your total display box. So for example if you had 300 in the total display box, and 100 in the transaction box and you checked "Service Charge" and hit calculate it would display 200 in the total display box, hit calculate again, and it shows 100.. etc..
