Want to store random numbers in Array

[Vishal40]

Hello Developers,

On button click ( UI action ) I am trying to generate random numbers between 1 to 100.

I want to store all generated random numbers on the form text field with comma-separated values.

Please help me with how I can do the same.

function selectNumber()
{
var finalArr = [];
var answer = confirm("Are you sure to fill the information");
if (answer==true)
{
var n= 100; // Outbound Limit
var x = Math.floor(Math.random() * n); //Generates random number from 0-n
var num = Number(x);
alert(num);
}

}

Hello Gunjan,

A random number will only generate when I will click on the button.

A single click will generate a single number. If I click on the button 5 times then only 5 random numbers will get generated in the text field.

45,23,16,67,89

If I click 2 more times on that button , above text field will populate:-

45,23,16,67,89, 67,45

Hey,

not sure what exactly you`re asking about - the number part or putting it into an UI Action?
The number part could look like this i guess:
---
var sRandomNumbers = randomNumberString();

function randomNumberString()

{

    var finalArr = [];

    var n=100; // # of numbers to generate

    var u=100; // Upper Limit

    for (var i=0; i<n;i++) {

        finalArr.push(Math.floor(Math.random() * u + 1).toString());

    }

    gs.log(finalArr.join());

    return finalArr.join();

}

---

Cheers!

Hi,

You can create script like below

replace <field_name> with actual field name to be populated

function selectNumber()
{
   var finalArr = [];
   var answer = confirm("Are you sure to fill the information");
   if (answer==true)
   {
      var n= 100; // Outbound Limit
      var x = Math.floor(Math.random() * n); //Generates random number from 0-n
      var num = Number(x);
      var currentVal = g_form.getValue("<field_name>");
      if(currentVal == "")
         g_form.setValue("<field_name>",num);
      else
         g_form.setValue("<field_name>",currentVal + "," + num);
      alert(num);
   }

}

Hello Sir,

How can I avoid duplicates from the above code?

Random Numbers should not be repeated.
