random array and user input logic test

going from actionscript 2 a2 to as3 can be tough, and this forum will show the road to as3. as3 is not best suited for small animation or web projects, and is in someways a red headed stepchild of java and c++. But, it still has a purpose, for now.

random array and user input logic test

Post by darknkreepy3# »

Here is the actionscript code for google bots and people just looking for valid code in as3. It covers randomization, unique values, and array comparisons.

Here is the .FLA file compatible with as3 flash, flex etc...

remember to right click(pc) or option click(apple) and save as... to your system

Code: Select all

function addGuess(e:MouseEvent):void
	{
	var tgt:Object=e.target;
	trace(tgt.ID);
	}
//-----
function init_numPad():void
	{
	var colAmt:int=3;
	var rowAmt:int=3;
	var colPos:int=-1;
	var rowPos:int=0;
	
	var amt:int=colAmt*rowAmt;
	var posX:Number=0;
	var posY:Number=0;
	var bt_dist:Number=120;
	//
	for(var a:int=0;a<amt;a++)

		colPos++;

		if(colPos==colAmt)

			colPos=0;

		T1.buttons[a]=new bt_num();

		tgt.x=posX;
		tgt.y=posY;
		tgt.tF_num.text=a;
		tgt.mc_backart.ID=a;
		tgt.mc_backart.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,addGuess);
		/*
		since the tF_num texfield is ontop of mc_backart
		the textfield should be disabled for mouse events so any click in the square space will work

		tgt.ic_random.visible=false;
		T1.root.pl_numPad.addChild(T1.buttons[a]);
