Randomizer!

[g-whizz]

Hi there.
I've three methods in a world that are a variation of the one thing. ie. person move to left, person stay in middle or move to the right.
How would i get this to randomize everytime the world plays?

Is there anyone that can help me randomize these three methods? Please!

Just generate a random number and then use nested if statments to call one of the three methods based on that number.

Look i'm going to be brutally honest - i'm rubbish at alice!
I've been trying this myself obviously, and what i have is a variable called number with a list of the numbers one, two, three.
then, i have three if statements with
---------------------
if<number contains 1>
Do:
Method 1
---------------------
if<number contains 2>
Do:
Method 2
---------------------
if<number contains 3>
Do:
Method 3
---------------------
Is this what you mean Dr Jim or am i totally wrong?

yeah, that's what he means. but. the random number generator in alice is slightly broken. you can tell it to generate integers but the if you put
if Variable1==1
Dothis
else

the action won't work even when the number rolled by the random number generator is 1.

"slightly" is a bit of an understatement - but it is a known bug and documented, with a fix, in the official bug list on the main Alice site.

The problem is that even with integer selected, Alice still can only handle floating point numbers, so you may get something like 1.00000000001 instead of just 1.

You can just use the fix on the bug list or just use an inequality like test_number < 1.1, test_number >1.9 and <2.1, test_number > 2.9 to fix the problem.
