Probability with random number and case structure

[nousome]

Hi

I would like to simulate probability function. I would like that an event has .75 probability to occur. I attached here my solution but I am not sure that it is the best way.

Thank you in advance.

I think there is something wrong with your attachment.

Can you repost it?

(or is it my computer ?)

The VI's name is invalid for HTML publishing.

HTML understands '%' as escape character for formating, for instance german umlaut are something like "%auml;"....

So please rename the VI.

thanks,

Norbert 

[EDIT]: Tho most common format string in HTML would be %20 for a blank (space).

Hi,

try this VI.

I did not understand yours....

[gosenbach]

How about this?

[MarcC]

I just understood your vi, and yes, you win 75% of the time

Very strange thinking, unnecessary code.... but i think correct result !

Okay thank you all.

Also remember that all code that is common in all frames of a case structure should be outside the case structure. (e.g. the dialog box in your case).

Here's what I would do instead.

Also, remember that is is very easy to generate random numbers with complicated probability profiles, for example as described here:
