  • Generate a random alphanumeric string in cocoa

    - by Ward
    Hey there, I know this can't be that hard. I've searched, but I can't seem to find a simple solution. I want to call a method, pass it the length and have it generate a random alphanumeric string. Any ideas? Are there any utility libraries out there that may have a bunch of these types of functions? Thanks, Howie

  • SQL Random number not working

    - by JMSA
    declare @fieldForceCounter as int declare @SaleDate as dateTime declare @RandomNoSeed as decimal set @fieldForceCounter = 1 set @SaleDate = '1 Jan 2009' set @RandomNoSeed = 0.0 WHILE @fieldForceCounter <= 3 BEGIN while @SaleDate <= '1 Dec 2009' begin INSERT INTO MonthlySales(FFCode, SaleDate, SaleValue) VALUES(@fieldForceCounter, @SaleDate, RAND(@RandomNoSeed)) set @saleDate = @saleDate + 1 set @RandomNoSeed = Rand(@RandomNoSeed) + 1 end set @SaleDate = '1 Jan 2009' set @fieldForceCounter = @fieldForceCounter + 1 END GO This T-SQL command was supposed to insert random values in the 'SaleValue'-column in the 'MonthlySales'-table. But it is inserting '1' every time . What can be the problem?

  • No Secure Random Number Generators Available in JDK

    - by rwbutler
    Hi, I am currently running JDK 6 on Windows 7 and have installed the Unlimited Strength Policy Files. I wrote a Java app some time ago which used to work but now fails, giving an error message indicating that the SHA1PRNG SecureRandom is not available. I have tried printing a list of cryptographic providers available on the platform and it would appear that there are no secure random number generators available - does anyone have any idea why this might be? Many thanks in advance for your help!

  • Random record in ActiveRecord

    - by astrofoo
    I'm in need of getting a random record from a table via ActiveRecord. I've followed the example from Jamis Buck from 2006. However, I've also come across another way via a Google search (can't attribute with a link due to new user restrictions): rand_id = rand(Model.count) rand_record = Model.first(:conditions => [ "id >= ?", rand_id]) I'm curious how others on here have done it or if anyone knows what way would be more efficient.

  • Initializing a C++ vector to random values... fast

    - by Flamewires
    Hey, id like to make this as fast as possible because it gets called A LOT in a program i'm writing, so is there any faster way to initialize a C++ vector to random values than: double range;//set to the range of a particular function i want to evaluate. std::vector<double> x(30, 0.0); for (int i=0;i<x.size();i++) { x.at(i) = (rand()/(double)RAND_MAX)*range; } EDIT:Fixed x's initializer.

  • Haskell and random numbers

    - by John D.
    Hi, I've been messing with Haskell few days and stumbled into a problem. I need a method that returns a random list of integers ( Rand [[Int]] ). So, I defined a type: type Rand a = StdGen -> (a, StdGen). I was able to produce Rand IO Integer and Rand [IO Integer] ( (returnR lst) :: StdGen -> ([IO Integer], StdGen) ) somehow. Any tips how to produce Rand [[Int]]?

  • Get random enum from a select group

    - by Coward
    Given a group of about 20 enums that I cannot modify. Im looking for an elegant solution to generate a random enum from a specific sample (ie, 2, 7, 18) I could put these into an arraylist, but thought I would ask if there is something else I could try.

  • Php random row help...

    - by Skillman
    I've created some code that will return a random row, (well, all the rows in a random order) But i'm assuming its VERY uneffiecent and is gonna be a problem in a big database... Anyone know of a better way? Here is my current code: $count3 = 1; $count4 = 1; //Civilian stuff... $query = ("SELECT * FROM `*Table Name*` ORDER BY `Id` ASC"); $result = mysql_query($query); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $count = $count + 1; $civilianid = $row['Id']; $arrayofids[$count] = $civilianid; //echo $arrayofids[$count]; } while($alldone != true) { $randomnum = (rand()%$count) + 1; //echo $randomnum . "<br>"; //echo $arrayofids[$randomnum] . "<br>"; $currentuserid = $arrayofids[$randomnum]; $count3 += 1; while($count4 < $count3) { $count4 += 1; $currentarrayid = $listdone[$count4]; //echo "<b>" . $currentarrayid . ":" . $currentuserid . "</b> "; if ($currentarrayid == $currentuserid){ $found = true; //echo " '" .$found. "' "; } } if ($found == true) { //Reset array/variables... $count4 = 1; $found = false; } else { $listdone[$count3] = $currentuserid; //echo "<u>" . $count3 .";". $listdone[$count3] . "</u> "; $query = ("SELECT * FROM `*Tablesname*` WHERE Id = '$currentuserid'"); $result = mysql_query($query); $row = mysql_fetch_array($result); $username = $row['Username']; echo $username . "<br>"; $count4 = 1; $amountdone += 1; if ($amountdone == $count) { //$count $alldone = true; } } } Basically it will loop until its gets an id (randomly) that hasnt been chosen yet. -So the last username could take hours :P Is this 'bad' code? :P :(

  • How to generate random html document

    - by karramba
    I'd like to generate completely random piece of html source, possibly from a grammar. I want to do this in python but I'm not sure how to proceed -- is there a library that takes a grammar and just randomly follows its rules, printing the path? Ideas?
