[Solved]How to get Random Letters
Is random numbers

<?php 
SetCurrentPlayerVar( "key", round( ToNum( RandomNum( 100000,999999 ) ),0 ) );
?>

Do you know how to do random letters?


<?php 
SetCurrentPlayerVar( "sorts", round( ToNum( RandomSorts( AAA,ZZZ ) ),0 ) );
?>

#2 - Krayy
Just genrate random numbers from 1 to 26 and use them to map to a letter i.e. 1 = A, 2= B etc
#3 - LFSCruise
I need to do three random letters.

Example: ABC or VBY
#4 - Whiskey
And can't you generate 3 random letters using Krayy's method?
#5 - LFSCruise
The code should look like?
#6 - Whiskey
you need to generate an ASCII code, and then convert it to a letter.

Or, you could do an array with all the letters and then generate a number between 0 and 26. So you would make lettersArray[randomNumber] to get that letter.
#7 - LFSCruise
I do not understand how you can show an example?
#8 - Whiskey
Did not tried it, but in php (and pretty much any language without the $ symbol) it should look like this:


<?php 
$lettersArray('ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ');
for ($i=0; $i<3; $i++)
{
   $string="";
   $string.=$lettersArray[round(ToNum( RandomNum(0,26 ))]; //0 to 26 - asuming you create 26 letters in the array
}
SetCurrentPlayerVar( "key", $string,0 ) ); 
?>
