Taking on a pet project to teach myself some things and hone some amateur skills.<BR><BR>Wondering if you could help point me in the right direction and assist me with some technical points as i get stuck.<BR><BR>I have a basic idea of how i would do this,... but i'm not sure whether it is the best way. So ... hence my guidance seeking.<BR><BR>Stage 1 will be a small prototype program,... once i can get it all workin in small form, i will then expand it greatly to an end state that i'm looking for.<BR><BR>Once the program executes. The user will be asked to choose between 3 things.. listed as option ABC or 123. Once they choose,... a random code, ... will give them a result based on their choice. Then they will be given 3 more choices. Random code again.<BR><BR>Just 2 questions asked overall... ending with a summary based on what happened based on their responces.<BR><BR>eg.1st Phase choose A, B or C<BR><BR>If you choose A,... random result of DEF can happen<BR>If you choose B,... random result of GHI can happen<BR>If you choose C,... random result of JKL can happen<BR><BR>2nd Phase You are given another choice based on the random result above.<BR><BR>Person chose C, their random result was L<BR><BR>From L, they are given 3 things to choose from.<BR><BR>If they choose A... random result of MNO can happen<BR>If they choose B... random result of PQR can happen<BR>If they choose C... random result of STU can happen<BR><BR>... summary given...<BR><BR>You choose to do 'x'.... as a result the first random result,.. this led you into situation b.. and you chose 'y'... as a result ... this is what happened.<BR><BR>So there will be alot of stored data as potential outcomes stored.<BR><BR>From choice 1,... 9 possible outcomes.<BR>After Choice 2... could see upto 81 different outcomes 9x9<BR><BR>So over all there would be 90 total outcomes listed in a table. To be randomly drawn form.<BR><BR>..., ... How would you begin coding this..., let me know the best way for me to nut this out. I hope it will teach me alot as a i go.<BR><BR>Once i have this small prototype built.. i plan to expand it.<BR><BR>Project 2 i want to have 'weighted randoms' if possible.. making some out comes more likely then others. Having more choses, more phases.<BR><BR><BR>Any assistence would be greatly appreciated.<BR><BR><BR>Tony Noyeaux <!-- google_ad_section_end --><br /><hr />Missed the show?
