how can I randomly choose from a set of number without any repetition?

[alams]

Hi,

I am trying to create a module on randomization without replacement.

I chose sample size to be 10. in other words, there will be ten trials. the number range is 1 to 10. there can not be any repetition during randomly choosing the numbers. I am able to do randomly choosing the number. However, I can NOT avoid the repetition of several numbers. I have attached what I am trying to do in order to avoid the repetition, but have not succeeded.

I am new at using LabVIEW. I will really appreciate your help on resolving this problem.

Thanks,

Samia

Try this...

All my comments are in the code.

Start with an array from 1..10 and apply the riffle function.

Use the output of the riffle function in order, one element at a time (e.g. via autoindexing).

Or you can make your own, e.g. as follows:
