Get Elements at random using Javascript

Posted By :Syed Shakeer Hussain      Posted Date :17/09/2009   Points :10   Category: Javascript    URL: http://www.dotnetspark.com
 


In this example of getting JavaScript array elements randomly we have printed the array elements by the random index position of the array. For generating random numbers we have used the Math.random() function.

In our HTML code we have created an array of ten elements and have stored ten elements in this array object arrName. Now in the variables  firstRandomNumber, secondRandomNumber and thirdRandomNumber we have generated three random numbers between value "0" and "9". Each and every time when the page is refreshed it changes the value of these three random variable and therefore we get the three different elements each time in the running page. Here is the full example code for printing the array elements by the random index position: 

javascript_array_random.html

html>
  <head>
    <title> JavaScript array random </title>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      var arrName = new Array(10);
      arrName[0"Amit";
      arrName[1"Santosh";
      arrName[2"Rose";
      arrName[3"India";
      arrName[4"News";
      arrName[5"Track";
      arrName[6"Sandeep";
      arrName[7"Suman";
      arrName[8"Saurabh";
      arrName[9"Vineet";
        var firstRandomNumber = (Math.round((Math.random()*8)+1))
      document.write("<b>First element:=</b>"
        +arrName
[firstRandomNumber]+"</br>");
        var secondRandomNumber = (Math.round((Math.random()*8)+1))
      document.write("<b>Second element:=</b>"
        +arrName
[secondRandomNumber]+"</br>");
        var thirdRandomNumber = (Math.round((Math.random()*8)+1))
      document.write("<b>Third element:=</b>"
        +arrName
[thirdRandomNumber]+"</br>");
    </script>
  </head>
  <body bgcolor="#ffffdd">
  <form>
    <h2><font color="blue">JavaScript array Random Example</font></h2>
    <input type="submit" value="Refresh"/>
  </form>
  </body>
</html>

Best Practices No 5: - Detecting .NET application memory leaks
Memory leaks in .NET application have always being programmer's nightmare. Memory leaks are biggest problems when it comes to production servers. Productions servers normally need to run with least down time. Memory leaks grow slowly and after sometime they bring down the server by consuming huge chunks of memory. Maximum time people reboot the system, make it work temporarily and send a sorry note to the customer for the downtime. ... Read More
.NET Best Practice No: 1:- Detecting High Memory consuming functions in .NET code
One of the important factors for performance degradation in .NET code is memory consumption. Many developers just concentrate on execution time to determine performance bottle necks in a .NET application. Only measuring execution time does not clearly give idea of where the performance issue resides. Ok, said and done one of the biggest task is to understand which function, assembly or class has consumed how much memory. In this tutorial we will see how we can find which functions consume how much memory. This article discusses the best practices involved using CLR profiler for studying memory allocation....
