So I want to find three names out of an array of names which I then want to write to a new array (not gotten this far yet though), but the problem I have is that it keeps randomizing the same names I already found.
Check out the jsfiddle script.
Code:
findStudentBtn.onclick = findStudent;
function findStudent() {
var studArray = ["John","Daniel","Hans","Lars","Tom","Amanda","Jane","Sarah"] //1-8
for (i=0; i<3; i++) {
if (i=1) {
var randomStud1 = studArray[Math.floor(studArray.length * Math.random())];
msg8.innerHTML += randomStud1 + ", ";
}
if (i=2) {
var randomStud2 = studArray[Math.floor(studArray.length * Math.random())];
msg8.innerHTML += randomStud2 + ", ";
}
if (i=3) {
var randomStud3 = studArray[Math.floor(studArray.length * Math.random())];
msg8.innerHTML += randomStud3 + ", ";
}
if (randomStud1 == randomStud2 || randomStud2 == randomStud3 || randomStud1 == randomStud3){
ms8.innerHTML = "";
findStudent();
}
}
}
