So I am trying to store data using random integers with the following code: loop randint (x, 1, 100) randint (y, 1, 200) if item (x,y) = 0 then item (x,y) :=1 itemcount := itemcount +1 end if exit when itemcount = 10 end loop so using that code, shouldn't x, y in item (x,y) be replaced with the random integers, and then the value of the specific random integers receive the +1? Currently, even using that code, while trying to check the value of (x,y) within a for loop, every single item (x,y) = 1, which I assume is because of that line not storing the data for the random integers, but just the variables? So my question is, how should I change / fix this, so that the values are stored for specific random integers? Thanks |

your checking if the (x,y)th element of item is 0, so is there a case where it isn't 0? |

the problem in your code is that you're just naming the element. you're not actually assigning anything to that element. for i : 1 .. 10 randint x,1,5 arrayx (i) := x end for |
