So I have an array that is working to display a random question. Does anyone have any ideas how to make the loop actually show the cycling of the questions as they randomize?

//the number of questions in the array

maxQuestions = questions.length;

//get and return a random questions from array

function getRandomQuestion() {

//calculate a random index

var index = Math.floor(Math.random() * (maxQuestions - 1));

//return the random sentence

return questions[index];

}

for (i = 0; i < 20; i++) {

//print(getRandomQuestion());

script.thisText.text = getRandomQuestion()

}

Hi Jonathon,

Do you mean to just increment index?

Let me know if this is not what you mean.

Thanks!

Jonathan

var index = 0;

//the number of questions in the array

maxQuestions = questions.length;




//get and return a random questions from array

function getNextQuestion() {

//calculate a random index

var nextQuestion = questions[index];

index++;

//return the random sentence

return nextQuestion;

}




for (i = 0; i < 20; i++) {

//print(getRandomQuestion());

script.thisText.text = getNextQuestion()

}
