One simple way to get what you want is by using a set:
Here's your method of generating random numbers. Don't count on it
giving you "secure" random numbers, but this technique won't care how
you produced them.
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require 'set'
def random_numbers(n = 500)
my_set = Set.new
while my_set.size < 500
value = Integer((rand * 1) * 1000) / Float(1000)
my_set << value
end
my_set.to_a
end
puts random_numbers.size
