Random number generator avoiding duplicates. - SL3

here is a small example, how it could work

idea

• in the storyline variable "max" you can set the number of tries (=> 50)
• create a array (list) of number: 1 .. max
• on click take a number with a random position out of the array
• window.[...] is a global storage, so different local scripts can use global js variables

on timeline start init the array

var player = GetPlayer();
var max = player.GetVar( "max" );

var numbers = [];
for( var i=1; i<=max; i++ ){
  numbers.push(i);
}
window.numbers = numbers;

player.SetVar( "debug", window.numbers.toString() );

on button click

var randomIndex, ready, ret;
var player = GetPlayer();

var currLength = window.numbers.length;
if (currLength === 0){
  GetPlayer().SetVar( "debug", "window.numbers.length empty" );
}
else {
  ready = false;
  if (currLength > 1){
    randomIndex = Math.floor( Math.random() * currLength );
  }
  else {
    randomIndex = 0;
    ready = true;
  }

  ret = window.numbers.splice( randomIndex, 1 );

  player.SetVar( "randnum", ret );
  player.SetVar( "ready", ready );
  player.SetVar( "debug", window.numbers.toString() );
}
