RE: [flexcoders] Randomizing Array (from actionscript cookbook3 and other places)

[Alex Harui]

This compiles and runs for me.

 

private function init():void

{

            function randomSort(a, b) {

            return Math.random()>.5 ? -1 : 1;

            }

 

            var numbers:Array = new Array();

 

            for (var n:int=0;n<10;n++){

            numbers[n] = n;

            }

            numbers.sort(randomSort);

            trace(numbers);

}

I am getting an error with the following code

TypeError: Error #1006: value is not a function.
at com.me.data::PictureProviderXML/::handleComplete()


function randomSort(a, b) {
return Math.random()>.5 ? -1 : 1;
}

var numbers:Array = new Array();

for (var n:int=0;n<photos.length;n++){
numbers[n] = n;
}
numbers.sort(randomSort);

any ideas, it looks like I am using this properly any ideas?

Thanks,
Patrick
