Re: Random number generator help

Since the groupsize actually varies (i.e. for any given result there may be 
groups of different sizes), it's probably better to specify the number of 
groups instead, so maybe something like:

TempString:="15"
numgroups:=5

t:=Number(TempString)
randomlist:=[]
repeat with j:=1 to t
  AddLinear(randomlist,j,Random(1,j,1))
end repeat

ResponseString:=""
a:=0
b:=t
repeat with j:=1 to t
  ResponseString:=ResponseString^randomlist[j]
  a:=a+numgroups
  if a>=b then
    ResponseString:=ResponseString^Return
    b:=b+t
  else
    ResponseString:=ResponseString^" "
  end if
end repeat
