PHP Arrays and Random

Chan · #1 (**permalink**) 08-26-2007, 02:17 PM

I have an array of values

PHP Code:


			
$myarray[0]="this";

$myarray[1]="data";

....

$myarray[44]="more data";

How can I randomly select elements in an array and delimit them by a comma? Like this:

Code:

("this","data");

I don't want the data to be repeated either so no:

Code:

("data","data")

Any ideas?

I just posted several of the random functions I use. This one may help you: Random Generator of Unequal Numbers

You can always just use the array_rand function.
