How to correctly make a check for... ?

[Phenomena]

setarray .array_list[0], 1, 2, 3, 4, 5;
set .random_variable, rand( 1,4 );
for( set .@a, 0; .@a < .random_variable; set .@a, .@a + 1 ) {
  setd( "Variable_" + .@a ), .array_list[ rand( getarraysize( .array_list) ) ];
  mes "" + getd( "Variable_" + .@a ) + "";
}

How to make non-repeatable "Variable_" + .@a for example if .random_variable > 1:

if .random_variable == 4: Variable_1 != Variable_2, Variable_1 != Variable_3, Variable_1 != Variable_4, Variable_2 != Variable_3, Variable_2 != Variable_4, Variable_3 != Variable_4

 

Is this possible to check it inside for( condition ) { statement }?

 

Thank you for any advises!

So you want a random number of variables set to a random number from a given array correct, without any repeating values from said given array?

 

try this

    setarray .array_list[0], 1, 2, 3, 4, 5;
    set .random_variable, rand( 1,4 );
    copyarray .@temp_list[0],.array_list[0],getarraysize( .array_list);
    for( set .@a, 0; .@a < .random_variable; set .@a, .@a + 1 ) {
        .@i = rand( getarraysize( .@temp_list) )
        setd( "Variable_" + .@a ), .@temp_list[ .@i ];
        deletearray .@temp_list[.@i],1;
        mes .@a + ": " + getd( "Variable_" + .@a ) + "";
    }

Edit2: This Should Work

If(getd("variable_"+rand(1,4)) == 5)

On phone so want type it all out but you get idea I hope

Not exactly what i mean...

 

1. We setup .array_list with VALUES: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5;

2. We generate random VALUE for .random_variable : could be from 1 to 4;

3. We processing with for( condition ) { statement } and SETUP "Variable_" + .@a with RANDOM value from .array_list : for example 1;

4. We continue do for( condition ) { statement } UNTIL we will have number of "Variable_" + .@a that equal to .random_variable

5. MAIN POINT: "Variable" + .@a is not repeatable, AGAIN: Variable_0 - one value; Variable_1 - different value IS NOT EQUAL to Variable_0;  Variable_2 - different value IS NOT EQUAL to Variable_1 AND IS NOT EQUAL to Variable_0;

Again: all Variable_X are unique...

 

Thank you again!

No, Sir, still have make duplicates.

[Stolao]

you read it too soon, i had to fix it above

 

No, Sir, still have make duplicates.

notice my edit is after your reply -..-

Working, trying to combine many time, need more time to test, thank you Sir!

Np, was a nice thought challenge before bed
