Hey Guys after analysing the multitude of responses I finally went with the
shortest code!
It works perfect & fast, thats all I needed
repeat until the number of items in tRnum = 5
set randomSeed to random(1)
put random(10) into tRand
if tRand is not among the items of tRnum then put tRa

Yes! Sorry about that.
I think sort by 12 effectively means to associate 12 with each item and
then sort by the associated value. The so
What does it mean to sort "1,2,3,4,5" by 12?

If you are asking the random of a big number then that will be true.
I think I remember that to generate a list of random numbers what you
should be doing is asking questions like
random(N)
random(N-1)

If you wanted to generate a random list with the numbers 1 thru 10
random(10) -> 3

Dwayne,
I'm sure there's a better way to do it, but how about this...
function makeRandomNumberList maxNumber
put 0 into i
repeat
put random(10) into thisNum
if thisNum is among the items of fNumbers then
next repeat
end if
add 1 to i
put thisNum into item i of fNumb
Hi Dwayne,
put GenerateRandom(6,10) -- the right parameters in your case
function GenerateRandom pHowMuchNumbers,pRange
local tRangeList
-
repeat until the number of lines of tRangeList = pHowMuchNumbers
set the randomSeed to random(10)
put random(pRange) into pNum
if pNum

How about something like:
repeat until the number of items in tRnum = 5
put random(10) into tRand
if tRand is not among the items of tRnum then put tRand & comma after
tRnum
end repeat

Here's one way to do it, with a button-script:

(Bon mouseUp
(B repeat
(Bif the number of lines in tResult > 5 then exit repeat

Hi All,
I am using the following code to generate a field of 6 random numbers.
repeat 5 times --generate list of 5 random numbers between 1-10
put random(10) & "," after tRnum
end repeat
delete last char of tRnum --delete last comma
put tRnum into fld "numbers"
this works fine but some numbers
