trying to prevent repeat random number in array

[Sigmahokies]

Hi everyone, I am beginner ti learn Java, I am trying to stop the repeat number in array, but it won't work. Anyone who have idea? it will be appericate...here my code to create random number that between 50 to 60, then put in 10 array, but few number are repeated...

	int [] myArray = {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9};
	int pop = 0;
	for (int i = 0; i < myArray.length; i++0 {
	pop = (int) ((Math.random() + 5) *10);
	for (int j = 0; j < myArray.length; j++) {
	if (pop != MyArray[j]) {
	myArray[j] = pop;
	}

You have a typo in that first for loop line.

Your next for loop is going to set every element in myArray to pop.  So you're going to end up with every element in myArray set to whatever the last random number was.  You're looping through myArray and, if the current element is not set to pop, then you set it to pop, so you set every element to pop.

What are you trying to do, are you just trying to get the numbers between 50 and 60 in a random order?

Hi justsomeguy,

Yes, i am trying to set up the random between 50 and 60, but not in order. I am trying to create the game. I want to have player 1 and player 2 making a guess number, if it is not match the secret number, then store into array to make sure player 1 and player 2 can't repeat number (like program can check to see if number is exist in array, then guess number that does not exist in array), until player 1 or player 2 make match the secret number to win.

Hey, Please be patient with me if my grammar in english is terrible, because I am fluent in ASL. Thank you so much!

If you just want the numbers 50 through 60 in a random order, you can make an array with those numbers and then shuffle it to randomize the order:

The other option is to keep generating random numbers and checking if they are already in the array before adding them.
