I am trying to create a random value between 10 and 1,000,000. I am using the following code but it is creating numbers between 10,000 and 999,999. How can I fix it.
<%
Highest=1000000
Lowest=10
Randomize
Val_Rand=CStr(CLng((Highest-Lowest+1)*Rnd+Lowest))
response.write(val_rand)
%>
The code never gives small numbers like 10, 15 500, 250, 257 etc.
I just wanted to know whats the best way to generate 50 or say X amount of number at random without having to repeat any of the previous number...
so far I've the following:
[VBS]<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%>
<%
function RandomNumber()
dim theRandom
Randomize
'RandomNumber = Int((upperbound - lowerbound + 1) * Rnd + lowerbound)
theRandom= Int((99 - (0) + 1) * Rnd + (0))
if (theRandom<10) then theRandom = "0" & theRandom
RandomNumber = theRandom
end function
%>[/VBS]
and then I've this in the body of HTML doc: Code:
I'm trying to generate three random different numbers to display three images on a page without repeating them. I can't seem to be able to get them to always be different. There's probably some simple solution, but I can't figure it out.
Here's my current code: ....
I want to display a random banner from a selection of 5 banners. So if number = 1 then display baner 1 etc. My code is as follows:
bannerCount = bannerRecordSet.RecordCount
Dim bannerSelected
Randomize
bannerSelected = Int(Rnd * bannerCount)
The above code works although it never seems to generate the value 1, ie 2-5. Also when I refresh the page sometimes a random banner is displayed and other times I get an error. Is this because I am generating a value outside 1-5? Code:
I need to be able to create some license keys for an application. Ideally
these wouldn't be too long in length (ie, easier to remember/type in), but I
would like them to be auto generated and a check made to see whether or not
that key has already been used, something which could generate up to about
10000 keys (or more if the string doesnt have to be too long) would be very
useful.
A combination of letters, numbers, upper and lower case is needed.
I could sit here and start plugging away at this, an array for numbers, an
array for letters, a random test for uppercase/lowercase etc, but it occured
to me that I'm probably just reinventing the wheel a bit here, someone must
have done this before!
Has anyone produced anything similar to this in the past?

View Replies View Relatedi trying to randomize a string of text inc. number and alpha. e.g. 024053J
what is the approach to generate a few integer numbers from this string "024053J" ?
i tried to this way of randomize but not very efficient as in sometimes the user will get the same numbers back when the page is refresh.
So i thought to use a string of text to generate the randomize numbers.
randomize()
num_pmax=100
num_pmin=1
r2=Int((num_pmax-num_pmin+1)*rnd+num_pmin)
Any clues or ideas how to generate a random time in VBScript?
View Replies View RelatedI have a problem creating random numbers. I basically have this
Randomize()
iRandom = Int(10 * Rnd + 1)
If I do not wait a few sec before hitting the page again it will create the same random number as generated a few seconds before.Any idea why it is like that? Another way to reprocess the "bug" is to just fit F5 few times in a row and you end up with the same number being generated. Its annoying and I need some help to "fix" it!

i am using below code to randomly generate questions numbers but the problem with this code is it is repeating the number.I want to generate non repeatable numbers. Can anyone help me out to do it.
Dim my_num,max,min
Dim i
i = 0
max=60
min=1
For i = 1 to 60

I know thats theres already a few posts about this subject but I need to create 3 random numbers of any size, I've used the following code -:
randomnumber1 = int(rnd*9)+1
randomnumber2 = int(rnd*9)+1

but it always returns, 7,5 and 6..
Not very random as you can see

View Replies View RelatedI have this situation:
each user has some amount of points, for example:
table:users
user_id --- user_name --- points
1 --- user1 --- 100
2 --- user2 --- 100
3 --- user3 --- 100
4 --- user4 --- 200
5 --- user5 --- 500
-------------------
total points: 1000
I want to generate random selection of user, according to their points respectively, so the more points he has, the more likely he will be selected:
user1 in 10% cases
user2 in 10% cases
user3 in 10% cases
user4 in 20% cases
user5 in 50% cases
this percentage is respective to their points; I put some rounded numbers in the example - so total points of 1000 equals 100% - but they can have any amount of points: 1, 200, 3672 etc.
I’m having problems on how to randomiz numbers and delete the ones that have been displayed.
My first step is to take some numbers:
21, 32, 35, 4, 15 and randomize theese so the ouput may look something like this:
35, 21, 15, 32, 4
My second step is to display the first number (35), then when a user clicks on a link I want the second of my random number (21) to be displayed and I also want to delete the first number (35) that has been displayed. And this routine (display number, delete previous number) should continoue untill there is no more numbers. So again, I wnat to step through all my random numbers and delete the ones I have displayed.
Example: ....
not after code, just thoughts, suppose i'm generating a random 8-digit pin number for our clients, first i'll be checking against the db to see if it already exists before assigning it. what i might do for that is getstring all of the exsiting pins at the top of the script and just keep performing an instr until i get a 0. (i dont expect to ever go above a thousand clients for this system and hopefully my initial number will be random enough that these checks are for backup/redundancy assertion anyway)
but anyway, the main problem is: i dont want to generate a random pin that is one (or maybe two) digit(s) different from another,. i.e.
11111111 is too close to 14115111 and much too close to 11111811. 11121111 is right out of the question as it can be entered as a typo, as is 11111411 because of the numpad
so i'm after thoughts on how to perform that check, i suppose if i went with the "big string of all pins that went before" check i could perform a number of regex searches on the string. i.e.
my pin is 12345678 and i dont want ony to be one digit different so i'd check the string against .2345678 1.345678 12.45678 and so on. think i just answered my own question, anyone else got any ideas? especially for the two digit case (dont want to be performing 36 regex checks do i!)
I am trying to write an array of random numbers to a database. The array part is working fine, but when I go to update the dataabse, it inserts the last value of the array into all the fields in the database .....
Dim MyValue,sqlRandom
Dim arrayRandom(8)
for i = 1 to 8
Randomize
MyValue = Int((100 * Rnd) + 1)
arrayRandom(i) = MyValue
response.write "<p> Array Value:" & arrayRandom(i)
sqlRandom = "UPDATE CarParkDetails SET FreeSpaces = '" & arrayRandom(i) & "'"
Conn.execute(sqlRandom)
next
I can't see whats wrong!
I need to generate three random numbers between 1 and 100, but they need to be different.
e.g. 3,43,88 would be fine but 5,76,76 would not.
The function I have to generate a single random number is:
function funRandomNumber(intHighestNumber)
randomize
funRandomNumber = int(rnd * intHighestNumber) + 1
end function
called by: funRandomNumber(100)
Can anyone see how this can be modified to do what I need?

However, what I want to do is include a request.querystring("ID"), so that IF an ID is defined, eg ID=3, , it will display the relevant (not random) information. I've tried this every way I can think and get type mismatches, etc etc. It's probably really simple but I can't see it.

We have the need to have a random token (a 16 char alphanumeric field) to be used as the key for one of our SQL tables. I have created a random token generator, however after only 3 months in production, it appears that we had an instance where a token that already existed in the tables was created. There are 3810 records currently in the database so it isn't like there are billions of records there.
I contacted an old college buddy of mine who is a mathematician, and he claims, assuming that random really does mean random, that the chances of getting a duplicate token are 1 in 79.5 septillion (79,500,000,000,000,000,000,000,000).
So my conclusion is that this was either a complete freak of nature occurance, or my random generator isn't really all that random. Here is the code behind how I am generating this: Code:
I am trying to generate a random number. I am using randomize and then rnd to return a decimal number between 100 and 120. This will give me a longitude. I am doing something similar to generate a latitude.
I created this on a page which refreshs every minute. I put these points into a map and they are showing up in groups of straight lines. Since rnd is time based will refreshing every 60 seconds return similar numbers?

View Replies View RelatedI noticed that PHP have the ability to create PDF files without using any third partty componentys. Most notably is via FPDF. It generates PDF by using "pdf markups" / or ghostscripts .
I believe the same can be done via ASP too. One has to use response.write pdf headers. Has anyone succeeded in doing that? I have the intention to go thru PHP's FPDF and try to convert that to VBScript.
