Loading a Random File

robhak

hi,

i want to load a random file into my HShape Class.. I got 10 Vector files named vector1.svg to vector10.svg

now is it possible to load one random each time? d = new HShape("vectors1.svg");

perhaps someting like this:

d = new HShape(""vectors""random(1,10)"".svg"");

koogs

String name = "vectors" + (int)random(1, 11) + ".svg";
d = new HShape(name);

that said, don't do this in your draw loop as it'll slow it down. better to load all the files into an array during setup() and then choose a random one from that array when you need one.

thanks very much!!!
