I want to generate numbers (1 to 15) in cells A1 through O1, but the
number in each cells should be unique compare to the other cells, how
can I do it? If I use =randbetween(1,15), I can not get unique number
in each cell, some numbers are duplicated.
In an earlier life I was tasked with finding a "random" method of selecting two numbers from a "1 to 20" range so that the generated numbers can be applied to an set of people who will be partnered in a golf game draw.
It is only one draw per year so I don't care if the players have previously played together in past years.
easily be modified by a "passable knowledge level" person to be able to select a mystery "9" out of 18 holes that count for scores that particular round.
(btw: this is an issue only for the 20 guys who go away once a year to play golf, the world will not collapse if I have to draw numbers out of a hat, just looking for a slightly more elegant solution and I already have a few scoring macros so my first guess (but not only possibility) is VBA)
I am working on a Random Cycle Count Generator that provides random SKU#s based on 3 separate columns of SKU listings. The user clicks a button to generate the SKU#s to cycle count for that day. What I would like to see is a date stamp in the columns next(B,D,F) to the referenced SKU listing(A,C,E) based on which SKU#s are generated. This will let me see the last date that the SKU was generated. I would also like it to automatically save after generating.

I have made a chart with the average uses per day but would like to have daily numbers that average out to what i have but in a random sequence e.g. i have that a shower uses 320 litres per day for 2 people is there a way i can make a chart that says: 300 (a1) 340(a2) 260(a3) 360(a4) etc i need to do this for 180 days with random numbers generated to average the same overall. I dont know even how to generate random numbers.
I am trying to generate random numbers between 0 - 9 in ten cells that do not repeat an always include every value 0 - 9 (0, 1, 2, 3, 4,...9). The object is to have the numbers randomize each time. So cells A1:A10 could look like this:
3
9
4
5
1
0
6
8
7
2
Or, they could look like this:
9

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to generate a dataset to use as an example in a class I'm helping out with.
I want 75 cases (that is, 75 rows)
Column A
randomly pick 1 or 2
Column B
60% 1 and 40% 2 randomly assigned to cases 1-75 (Thus, 45 1's and 30 2's randomly assigned to rows 1-75)
Column C
Randomly pick from the range of numbers 18-65. Make sure the mean for the column is 48.72.
Column D
Randomly pick from the range of numbers 1-7. Make sure the mean for the column is 5.49.
I've got a problem with creating random numbers for a fictional portfolio. I've to have a row of random number but they have to add up to 1. Example: Need random numbers from B1-B11
under constraint: Sum(B1-B11) = 1
I tried to do it with the solver addin, but it only takes simple numbers as a constraint.
I have a frequency list (frequency per year) resulted from previous calculation. What I want is to generate random number as many as the frequency in the specified year, so that every year I will get the same amount of random numbers as the frequency. It is kind of the opposite of FREQUENCY function (but with random numbers involved). I need to use the result for further calculation.
I am trying to generate random numbers with the the constraint that the maximum value is 40 and the most likely value is around 40% of the maximum value. Are there any distributions (lognormal??) that would suit this requirement? Is there any way I can do this in Excel?

How to create a sheet to generate Random numbers from 2 specific list of a main list range of 36 Numbers. (List A = Specific 15 numbers, List B = The remaining Numbers from these 36)
Example :
-The Main List Range is from Number 01 to 36
-The Specific random list will be 15 Numbers of these 36
List A-. The Specific 15 Numbers are: 01,02,03,10,11,12,13,20,21,22,23,30,31,32,33
List B-. Remaining Numbers : 04,05,06,07,08,09,14,15,16,17,18,19,24,25,26,27,28,29,34,35,36
So
I need to generate ONE Unique Random Numbers of List A ( 01,02,03,10,11,12,13,20,21,22,23,30,31,32,33)
In Cell A1
In Cell A2
In Cell A3
And from List B, (04,05,06,07,08,09,14,15,16,17,18,19,24,25,26,27,28,29,34,35,36)
I need to do the same thing In
Cell A4
Cell A5
Cell A6
It's possible to have a 6 cells with random but Unique Digits? (not repeated numbers between the 6 cell ??)
I have 12 Cells, years 1 to 12. I want to create a random number for each cell, which then depending on what the number is, either 1-75 being 8,000,000 or 76-100 being 10,500,000, place it in the cell and be able copy it down. What i have done already you can see on the attached workbook, or the table i used:
I used this table to generate the random number to give either 8m or 10.5m, except i put the VLOOKUP in the year 1 cell, added some dollars signs and copied down but that only makes them all the same, so i want a way to make each year have its own random number preferably without making 10 tables.
I need a macros to fill 2000 rows with unique random numbers from 1 to 19 in B2:T2001 area. Every row like this

Actually it's about random positions in rows for numbers from 1 to 19.

I am looking for a way to create a random order of numbers in a given range. For example, A1:a100 to be populated with a random number between 1 and 100, but not to duplicate, using every possible number within that range. I use the RANDBETWEEN function to generate the numbers, but I cannot prvent them from duplicating.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've read a lot of tutorials on how to use pivot tables, but found them either too basic, or too advanced, and never finding any example of what I am looking to do.
I have a database, column A holds names, and column B their phone numbers. I'd like to generate a list of unique names and their associated telephone numbers. I figure I can use a pivot table to do this.
But I do not quite understand how to format the pivot table to put the name in one column and the phone number in the next. I will use this pivot table as a vlookup range. I assume I can do this.
I was just wondering if there is a way to make rand or randbetween functions work with text. Alternatively, is there another function that will allow me to do this, without adding numbers in the parallel row.
I want the column, to randomly choose between "male" and "female". I do not want to add additional rows or columns preferably..
Is it possible to use the =randbetween() function to generate a random number between 0.8 and 1.2.
