I hav a numeric array,which contains 20 elements.I am displaying the numbers randomly for a blackberry application,bt i want dat all d numbers generated should b unique.It should b randomly generated,bt it has b unique until all the elemnts in the array is exhausted.I am giving the piece of code here,if anyone can help me out,i will开发者_开发技巧 b extremely grateful.
static int quesNum[] = new int[20];
static int quesCount = -1;
private static void initialize(){
Random rgen = new Random(); // Random number generator
//--- Initialize the array
for (int i=0; i<quesNum.length; i++) {
quesNum[i] = i;
}
//--- Shuffle by exchanging each element randomly
for (int i=0; i< quesNum.length; i++) {
int randomPosition = rgen.nextInt(quesNum.length);
int temp = quesNum[i];
quesNum[i] = quesNum[randomPosition];
quesNum[randomPosition] = temp;
}
}
/*Changed the code to get a unique random number
*/
public static int getQuestionNumber() {
quesCount++;
if(quesCount < quesNum.length){
return quesNum[quesCount];
}
else{
initialize();
quesCount = -1;
return getQuestionNumber();
}
}
Shuffle first, then iterate:
Collections.shuffle(listOfValues);
for(Integer val : listOfValues) {
// give it to user
}
UPDATE
Some wording of OP makes me think Collections.shuffle() is not supported on Blackberry. Then advise is to copy the code of Collections.shuffle(List,Random) into the application.
What you're describing is a perfect application for just shuffling the array.
int len = 20;
Integer[] arr = new Integer[len];
for(int i =0;i<len;i++){
arr[i] = Integer.valueOf(i+1);
}
Collections.shuffle(Arrays.asList(arr));
Now the array is shuffled and you can iterate over it.
You can use an ArrayList instead of the Array and delete each generated number.
