Sorting A Random Array

How do i write that so no matter what the length is the middle of the index is selected. I have wrote some code but the if isnt working and the var to set the two array lengths is not right Code:

Sorting Objects Inside Of Multidiminsional Array For Main Array?

Apr 25, 2011

I am really hoping someone is willing to take the time to read this post and take a minute to take a look at my code. What is happening is there are some matches for a script I made and then an area for segments during an event. If you notice on the segment part of the form is that there is a dropdown that asks for where in the event that segment needs to go. With the Introduction or the different numbered matches. What I need to happen for a subArray I need it to take the introduction, all the matches, and all the segments and order them accordingly. With the introduction first, the matches in order based off there match number and then the segments in between the introduction or matches based off the user's input.[URL]..

Prevent Repeating In A Random (Math.random) Array?

Aug 6, 2009

I've looked for a solution to this issue, but it seems like a little different scenario than other situations. I made a system for generating friend requests on Facebook. I have a grid that is 6 x 3, for a total of 18 cells. Each cell has a picture in it, and the picture is linked to the Facebook friend request page. My problem is that since each cell is populated at random from the array, I'm getting lots of repeats. For example, some picutures are in 5 cells, and some are in none. I'm trying to figure out how to make it so that once a picture is used once in the grid, it does not get used again in the same grid.I still want every cell filled at random on each page load, I just want to prevent the repeating.

Here's my current code:
<script type="text/javascript">
var vip_list=new Array(
new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v225/1616/88/s1220771654_2158.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=1220771654'),
new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v223/1233/29/s904885342_9055.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=904885342'),

Sorting Array Changes Keys?

Jan 26, 2010

Firstly, apologies for my terrible JavaScript knowledge! I'm getting there! I have an array that is made up of the results of a few SQL queries. The queries return the record id and an integer. I need to sort the results of the queries by the integer. I am trying to store them in an array, using the record is as the key, then sorting the array. However, when I try to get the data out of the array, it has changed the key!

E.g.
Original results
[10605] = 141
[10744] = 116
[18835] = 166
[15304] = 166

Sorting An Array Of Scores?

Nov 7, 2010

For example if I have this function name: function sortScores(myscores){ I would like to take an array of score records (each containing a score and a page number) and return a sorted version where the records are arranged in descending order of score.

so if I have this example call: sortScores( [ { score:0, Number:0 }, { score:2, Number:1 }, { score:1, NUmber:2 } ] )

I would get the example result:[ { score:2, Number:1 }, { score:1, Number:2 }, { score:0, Number:0 } ]

Where the results have been sorts in descending order of score. I've looked at this example, but it only deals with one one value -->[URL]..

Shuffle Array Elements (3 To End Of Array) In Random Order

May 6, 2007

I'd like to reorganize the third, fourth, fifth and sixth, as well as any
elements thereafter in an array in random order:

var a = new Array('first','second','third','fourth','fifth','s ixth','etc')

In other words, the first, second and third element should remain in
position 0, 1 and 2, while the fourth, fifth and sixth, etc. should appear
in random order.

Sorting Array Against Other Array

Jan 17, 2007

Say I have two arrays with the same number of elements that are related:

var a1 = [1,3,2];
var b2 = ["a","b","c"];

I need to sort a1 but have the order of the elements in b2 reflect the
any new order in a1. So if a1 sorts as

[1,2,3] then b2 becomes
["a","c","b"]

or if a1 sorts as

[3,2,1] then b2 becomes
["b","c","a"]

Random Words From Array In Hangman?

Jan 21, 2009

I am learning Javascript from this book I got, and I am trying to do one of the "challenges" in the Hangman example, and that is to add on more 8 letter words to it and have it select by random. I am assuming that it's asking me to do this with arrays, but I have no idea how to implement that on this while having it select randomly.

Display X Random Values From Array?

May 7, 2011

I have an array containing 100 different values. How would I randomly pick 25 of them for display? For now I do: for (var i=0; i<markers.length && i<25; i++) {

html += markers[i].name + '<br />';
}

Which of course returns 25 values but always in the same order which is not what I want. PS. My array could also contain only 20 values, in which case I would like the function to display the 20 values randomly sorted.

Select A Random Entry From An Array?

Aug 30, 2010

So, I am attempting to select a random entry from an array, and then make it so that particular entry will not be selected again until every entry has been selected. Basically, I don't want to see any of the same entries, until all of the entries in the array have been selected.

So if this were my array....

keywords =
[
"ppc",
"games",

[Code]....

since meta was selected a second time before everything had been selected once.

I would like to see something more like

meta, advertise, gaming,ppc, welcome, home, games, advertise, ppc, since this did not select any entry multiple times before every entry had been randomly selected.( the second loop started at the second "advertise" in case you didn't catch the differences.

But as you can see from the code that I have posted above, I do not know how to do this. I have seen examples where the entries that were randomly selected, were actually deleted from the array entirely but this is not what I want to do. I just want every entry to be selected once, and then for the process to be restarted.

box2 = obj.form.box2.checked;
box3 = obj.form.box3.checked; // add more if necessary
box4 = obj.form.box4.checked;
box5 = obj.form.box5.checked;

count = (box1 ? 1 : 0) + (box2 ? 1 : 0) + (box3 ? 1 : 0) + (box4 ? 1 : 0) + (box5 ? 1 : 0);

if (count > max) {
alert("You can only choose " + max + " of the 5 nominees.");
obj.checked = false;
}
}

Starting Image In Random Array?

May 15, 2010

I'm creating a tool which will who a random image every time I press a button, when the image is clicked it will open a new tab which will show a website. I can tell you I've succeeded in all this, but I was wondering if there is any way in which I can let my "generator" show 1 standard image at first, and if this is even possible never show that image after it has been showed. The image will explain that the you have to press the button to go to the next image.The Code:

<script language="JavaScript">
images = new Array(4);
images[0] = "<a href = 'URL' target='name' onclick='window.open ('URL')' ><img src='img1.jpg' alt='tag'></a>";

Multiple Array And Random Numbers ?

Nov 10, 2010

I have a quick question with multiple array and random numbers. If i generate my random numbers in one array, how would i take a selection of those numbers and put them in another array?

Ex: array 1: 25, 34, 38, 40, 22, 49

Want to move numbers between 30 and 50 to another array.

array 2: 34, 38, 40, 49

Is it as simple as for loops and if statements setting the conditions? do i use a sorting method? (selection? bubble?)

Random Sentence Generator Using Array

Mar 29, 2010

I am taking a Javascript class and the teacher assigned this: Quote: Write a script that uses a random number generation to create sentences and name it sentences.html. Use five arrays of strings called: uppercase article (uarticle), noun, verb, lowercase article (larticle), and preposition. You will need to use the correct case for the article arrays. Create a sentence by selecting a word at random from each array in the following order: uarticle, noun, verb, preposition, larticle, noun. You can find examples of generating random numbers in both Fig. 8.6 (dice-rolling) and Fig. 8.7 (random image) of Chapter 8.

The arrays should be filled at minimum, as follows: the article array(s) should contain the articles: the, a, one, some and any. The noun array should contain the nouns: boy, girl, dog, town and car. The verb array should contain the verbs: drove, jumped, ran, walked, and skipped. The preposition array should contain the prepositions: to, from, over, under and on. If you would like to add more words, adjust the arrays appropriately.
