Choosing a label at random

Question

I'm a relative beginner with C#/Visual Studio and have recently been trying to put together a minesweeper game as practice. Does anybody know how I would choose 20 labels out of 100 on a form at random? I can't seem to think of any way.

Hi. Here's a peace of code: //CODE START ********************************************************* Label[,] MyLabels = new Label[10, 10]; for(int i = 0; i for(int j = 0; j { MyLabels[i,j] = new Label(); MyLabels[i,j].Parent = this; // Or You can Add MyLabels[i,j] to your form controls // Set MyLabels Location According to i, j if you want to display a 2D array //Set MyLabels Size, Text etc. } int[] numbers = new int[20]; // if you want, not to have repeated numbers, you need an array. bool repeated = false; Random R = new Random(100); for(int i = 0; i { repeated = false; int temp = R.Next(); for(int j = 0; j if(numbers[j] == numbers[i]) repeated = true; if(repeated == false) { numbers[i] = temp; i++; } } //CODE END************************************************************ I hope it helps.

create an array of the labels and use something like Random, search for Random in your C# version of Help.
