Title: [Classpad] How to generate a size 5 sample from a list of numbers?
Post by: Lucid on February 18, 2012, 02:48:08 pm

I have 50 numbers I want to generate 5 random numbers from.

I've entered it in the list under 'statistics' but I don't know how to type in the formula of randList.

I thought it would be something like randList(5, List1) or something.

P.S I know I can type them all out in Main.

EDIT: I just did RandList(5,1,50) Then wrote down the corresponding values.

Thanks anyway :)

Be careful because the Classpad seems to repeat numbers.
