I have to make a game in Visual Basic as a part of a school project. The application makes the user input 6 numbers. It then randomly picks numbers and then compares them with the 6 numbers. It arranges both of them in ascending order. The randomly selected numbers are checked for any repetition. If the user gets 1 right then he makes $2, if he gets 2 right then $20, 3 then $60, 4 then $100, 5 then $200 and if he gets 6 right then he makes $500. To start a game user should pay $ 50. He gets $100 when the game starts. When the user runs out of money then his game ends and he enters his name in high score.
I have coded a part of that. I am stuck. I just want ideas what I can do now!! I will then code it on my own..Please its urgent!! I am stuck here.

Ok, any time you see your code doing something like this...

Dim Number1 As Integer
Dim Number2 As Integer
Dim Number3 As Integer
Dim Number4 As Integer
Dim Number5 As Integer
Dim Number6 As Integer
...

Then you should immediately think "I need an array to hold these numbers." Two arrays will make things a lot easier for you in this project and also cut your code down drastically. You will then use a loop to load the first array with input the user enters. Then the second array will be loaded with a loop that generates the random numbers. Then you can use the Array object to sort each of them. Then of course since they are now the same length (the term is called parallel arrays) you can simply loop through them at the same time and compare each value.

Just imagine if they asked you to enter 500 numbers. Your code would grow crazy! So I strongly suggest you switch over to arrays for this. I will get you started with the array that generates random numbers...

' Declare an array of 6 numbers (5 is highest subscript)
Dim rndNumbers(5) As Integer

' Our random number
Dim rnd As New Random

' We loop 6 times, loading each array spot with a random number 1 to 10.
For i As Integer = 0 To 5
	 rndNumbers(i) = rnd.Next(1, 11)
Next

' Here we just print out the list to show that the numbers are loaded and that there are 6 random numbers
For Each num As Integer In rndNumbers
	 MessageBox.Show(num.ToString())
Next

So now you have an array of six random numbers called "rndNumbers" and now do another for the user input values and use rndNumbers and the other array for your comparisons. Hope you get the idea. Good luck!

How do you compare values of an array to an individual value in another array.

The secret ninja magic For loop.

For each value As Integer in myArray
  If value = whatIWant Then
	'do secret ninja magic
  End If
End For
