Subject: Re: AW5: Randomize questions in a quiz - Sample codes needed

To set up the actual random question test is easily done with a decision icon (the diamond shaped icon).

Set the REPEAT to "fixed number of times" - in your case 20 Set the BRANCHING to "randomly to any path" Also, check "pause before branching" in the properties box for the decision path, this will give you a continue button to proceed to the next question.

Then attach 48 map icons or display icons to the decision icon. The decision icon will then randomly select 20 paths to go thru, out of the 48 paths.

This should help you get started setting up the quiz.

You will probably have to set up some kind of calc with a loop to figure out what question # your on ---out of 20 questions.

Hope this helps! Chip Beegle
