Changed the setup so that the pellets landing outside the big circle were
ignored and just kept going until I had 1000 within the circles in a completely
random pattern without Trig. Now the ratio in the smaller circle is 25% or ¼
like the area comparison would suggest.

Hi Jerry
I just tried that because I’m no math wizard and need to see things. When
shooting a random shotgun blast of 1000 pellets into the centre of a target
square that contained the large circle and small circles, the ratio worked out
to around 0.2 - not 0.25. It seems the corners outside t
Additional thought:
If you just used random x and y, then ignored points outside the larger circle,
you would see that 1/4 of the points would be in the smaller circle.
No trig or integrals involved.

1/2 is the right answer.
Take your drawing of the circles. Cut a veyy thin radial slice from the
center to the outside circle. So thin that it is just a line.
Now think of how likely a random point on that line will be in the part of the
line that was in the smaller circle. The part that w
Your chance to be Genius du Jour:
If I construct 2 concentric circles, one being half the radius of the larger,
then simple math shows that the smaller circle has an area ¼ the area of the
larger.
Now if I generate a random point within the radius of the larger circle, I
should expect that the
It appears I have that backwards?

If the array is indexed from 1 with no gaps, you can do
repeat with I = 1 to item 2 of line 1 of the extents of myArray

Hi David,
Yes, I did have this working on iOS.

It's a couple of years since I worked on this project, and it was an internal
app only - not distributed to the app store.
I'm actually currently disbarred from testing apps on iOS - my current

Interesting. I don't have that problem.

Ditto, and I am not sure what noticeable impact one method would have over

David,
Nope you have to sort them NUMERIC. As you said this is the only way I know of.
I do this all the time. I don't know of any other way.
put the keys of tMyArray into tKeys
sort lines of tKeys numeric
repeat for each line tKey in tKeys

As long as the array is indexed starting at 1 with no gaps it should work by
looping for each element. I just did a quick test to confirm. I built a 100
element array and it looped in order. I deleted 2 keys and then it didn’t. I
then added those 2 missing keys back and it worked again.

Repeat for each key and repeat for each element does not seem to sort the keys
in numeric order,. Of course I can get the keys and sort them before repeating

And I thought I was the only person in Rogaland County using LiveCode. I have
been teaching Information Technology at an upper secondary school in Haugesund
for the last seven years, using LiveCode. I would very much like to keep tabs
on what you are doing. It may be of interest to both me and
Wow. Looking forward to the success story.
