Hi,
I want to randomly select 2 values from an array. To do this, I wrote the code below. However "sample 2" does not work as shown by the size function. The array target_select contains as many values as the array target_order.
task set_order
set &&target_order range 1 10
set &&target_order shuffle
set &&target_select &&target_order sample 2
set &number &&target_select size
save &number
block set_order
tasklist
set_order 1
end
set &&target_order range 1 10
set &&target_order shuffle
set &&target_select &&target_order sample 2
set &number &&target_select size
save &number
block set_order
tasklist
set_order 1
end
I also tried an alternative way of doing this, see below. However, I need random selection without replacement. Yet, the code below does random selection with replacement.
task set_order
set &&target_select random 1 10 times 2
set &&target_select random 1 10 times 2
Thank you,
Regina
