How to return the largest integer in an Array that has 10 random integers in it?

So this is a coding question from school I have, I don't want to say "hey guys do my homework for me!", I actually want to understand what's going on here. We just started on arrays and they kind of confuse me so I'm looking for some help.
Here's the complete question:
Write a program in which the main method creates an array with
10 slots of type int. Assign to each slot a randomly-generated
integer. Call a function, passing it the array. The called
function should RETURN the largest integer in the array to
your main method. Your main method should display the number
returned. Use a Random object to generate integers. Create it
with
Random r = new Random(7);
Generate a random integer with
x = r.nextInt();
So, here's what I have so far:
import java.util.Random;
public class Q1 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Random r = new Random(7);
int[] count = new int[11];
int x = r.nextInt();
for (int i = 0; i < count.length; i++)
{
count[i] = x;
}
}
I created that array with 10 ints, then used a for loop to assign each slot that randomly generated integer.
I'm having a hard time for what to do next, though. I'm not sure what kind of method / function to create and then how to go from there to get the largest int and return it.
Any help is really appreciated because I really want to understand what's going on here. Thank you!

Here is how to generate Random ints
public static void main(String[] args) {
int []count = new int[10];
Random r = new Random(7);
int x=0;
for (int i = 0; i < count.length; i++)
{
x = r.nextInt();
count[i] = x;
}
System.out.println("Max Number :"+maxNumber(count));}//Getting Max Number
Here is how to make method and get max number from list.
static int maxNumber(int[] mArray){//Passing int array as parameter
int max=mArray[0];
for(int i=0;i<mArray.length;i++){
if(max<mArray[i]){//Calculating max Number
max=mArray[i];
}
}
return max;//Return Max Number.
}
Ask if anything is not clear.
This is how we make method which return int.

You can do it by using a simple for loop for the Array.
First you have to create a seperate int variable (eg: int a) and assign value zero (0) and at each of the iterations of your loop you have to compare the array item with the variable a. Just like this
a < count[i]
and if it's true you have to assign the count[i] value to the variable a . And this loop will continue until the Array's last index and you will have your largest number in the a variabe. so simply SYSOUT the a variable
Important: I didn't post the code here because I want you to understand the concept because If you understand it then you can solve any of these problems in future by your self .
Hope this helps

What you have got so far is almost correct, but you currently are using the same random number in each iteration of your for-loop. Even though you need to get a new random number for each iteration of your for-loop. This is due to how the Random object is defined. You can achieve this by changing your code the following way:
import java.util.Random;
public class Q1 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Random r = new Random(7);
int[] count = new int[11];
for (int i = 0; i < count.length; i++)
{
int x = r.nextInt(); // You need to generate a new random variable each time
count[i] = x;
}
}
Note that this code is not optimal but it is the smallest change from the code you already have.
To get the largest number from the array, you will need to write another for-loop and then compare each value in the array to the largest value so far. You could do this the following way:
int largest = 0; // Assuming all values in the array are positive.
for (int i = 0; i < count.length; i++)
{
if(largest < count[i]) { // Compare whether the current value is larger than the largest value so far
largest = count[i]; // The current value is larger than any value we have seen so far,
// we therefore set our largest variable to the largest value in the array (that we currently know of)
}
}
Of course this is also not optimal and both things could be done in the same for-loop. But this should be easier to understand.

Your code should be something like this. read the comments to understand it
public class Assignment {
public static int findMax(int[] arr) { // Defiine a function to find the largest integer in the array
int max = arr[0]; // Assume first element is the largest element in the array
for (int counter = 1; counter < arr.length; counter++) // Iterate through the array
{
if (arr[counter] > max) // if element is larger than my previous found max
{
max = arr[counter]; // then save the element as max
}
}
return max; // return the maximum value at the end of the array
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
int numberofslots =10;
int[] myIntArray = new int[numberofslots]; // creates an array with 10 slots of type int
Random r = new Random(7);
for (int i = 0; i < myIntArray.length; i++) // Iterate through the array 10 times
{
int x = r.nextInt();
myIntArray[i] = x; // Generate random number and add it as the i th element of the array.
}
int result = findMax(myIntArray); // calling the function for finding the largest value
System.out.println(result); // display the largest value
}
}
Hope you could understand the code by reading comments..

This can be done in one simple for loop no need to have 2 loops
public static void main(String[] args) {
Integer[] randomArray = new Integer[10];
randomArray[0] = (int)(Math.random()*100);
int largestNum = randomArray[0];
for(int i=1; i<10 ;i++){
randomArray[i] = (int)(Math.random()*100);
if(randomArray[i]>largestNum){
largestNum = randomArray[i];
}
}
System.out.println(Arrays.asList(randomArray));
System.out.println("Largest Number :: "+largestNum);
}

Initialize max value as array's first value. Then iterate array using a for loop and check array current value with max value.
OR you can sort the array and return. Good luck!

Here's a basic method that does the same task you wish to accomplish. Left it out of the main method so there was still some challenge left :)
public int largestValue(){
int largestNum;
int[] nums = new int[10];
for (int n = 0; n < nums.length; n++){
int x = (int) (Math.random() * 7);
nums[n] = x;
largestNum = nums[0];
if (largestNum < nums[n]){
largestNum = nums[n];
}
}
return largestNum;
}

A randomized array with no repeating values [duplicate]

I'm trying to get random numbers between 0 and 100. But I want them to be unique, not repeated in a sequence. For example if I got 5 numbers, they should be 82,12,53,64,32 and not 82,12,53,12,32
I used this, but it generates same numbers in a sequence.
Random rand = new Random();
selected = rand.nextInt(100);

Add each number in the range sequentially in a list structure.
Shuffle it.
Take the first 'n'.
Here is a simple implementation. This will print 3 unique random numbers from the range 1-10.
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Collections;
public class UniqueRandomNumbers {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ArrayList<Integer> list = new ArrayList<Integer>();
for (int i=1; i<11; i++) list.add(i);
Collections.shuffle(list);
for (int i=0; i<3; i++) System.out.println(list.get(i));
}
}
The first part of the fix with the original approach, as Mark Byers pointed out in an answer now deleted, is to use only a single Random instance.
That is what is causing the numbers to be identical. A Random instance is seeded by the current time in milliseconds. For a particular seed value, the 'random' instance will return the exact same sequence of pseudo random numbers.

With Java 8+ you can use the ints method of Random to get an IntStream of random values then distinct and limit to reduce the stream to a number of unique random values.
ThreadLocalRandom.current().ints(0, 100).distinct().limit(5).forEach(System.out::println);
Random also has methods which create LongStreams and DoubleStreams if you need those instead.
If you want all (or a large amount) of the numbers in a range in a random order it might be more efficient to add all of the numbers to a list, shuffle it, and take the first n because the above example is currently implemented by generating random numbers in the range requested and passing them through a set (similarly to Rob Kielty's answer), which may require generating many more than the amount passed to limit because the probability of a generating a new unique number decreases with each one found. Here's an example of the other way:
List<Integer> range = IntStream.range(0, 100).boxed()
.collect(Collectors.toCollection(ArrayList::new));
Collections.shuffle(range);
range.subList(0, 99).forEach(System.out::println);

Create an array of 100 numbers, then randomize their order.
Devise a pseudo-random number generator that has a range of 100.
Create a boolean array of 100 elements, then set an element true when you pick that number. When you pick the next number check against the array and try again if the array element is set. (You can make an easy-to-clear boolean array with an array of long where you shift and mask to access individual bits.)

Use Collections.shuffle() on all 100 numbers and select the first five, as shown here and below.
Console:
59 9 68 24 82
Code:
private static final Random rnd = new Random();
private static final int N = 100;
private static final int K = 5;
private static final List<Integer> S = new ArrayList<>(N);
public static void main(String[] args) {
for (int i = 0; i < N; i++) {
S.add(i + 1);
}
Collections.shuffle(S, rnd);
for (int i = 0; i < K; i++) {
System.out.print(S.get(i) + " ");
}
System.out.println();
}

I feel like this method is worth mentioning.
private static final Random RANDOM = new Random();
/**
* Pick n numbers between 0 (inclusive) and k (inclusive)
* While there are very deterministic ways to do this,
* for large k and small n, this could be easier than creating
* an large array and sorting, i.e. k = 10,000
*/
public Set<Integer> pickRandom(int n, int k) {
final Set<Integer> picked = new HashSet<>();
while (picked.size() < n) {
picked.add(RANDOM.nextInt(k + 1));
}
return picked;
}

I re-factored Anand's answer to make use not only of the unique properties of a Set but also use the boolean false returned by the set.add() when an add to the set fails.
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Random;
import java.util.Set;
public class randomUniqueNumberGenerator {
public static final int SET_SIZE_REQUIRED = 10;
public static final int NUMBER_RANGE = 100;
public static void main(String[] args) {
Random random = new Random();
Set set = new HashSet<Integer>(SET_SIZE_REQUIRED);
while(set.size()< SET_SIZE_REQUIRED) {
while (set.add(random.nextInt(NUMBER_RANGE)) != true)
;
}
assert set.size() == SET_SIZE_REQUIRED;
System.out.println(set);
}
}

I have made this like that.
Random random = new Random();
ArrayList<Integer> arrayList = new ArrayList<Integer>();
while (arrayList.size() < 6) { // how many numbers u need - it will 6
int a = random.nextInt(49)+1; // this will give numbers between 1 and 50.
if (!arrayList.contains(a)) {
arrayList.add(a);
}
}

This will work to generate unique random numbers................
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Random;
public class RandomExample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Random rand = new Random();
int e;
int i;
int g = 10;
HashSet<Integer> randomNumbers = new HashSet<Integer>();
for (i = 0; i < g; i++) {
e = rand.nextInt(20);
randomNumbers.add(e);
if (randomNumbers.size() <= 10) {
if (randomNumbers.size() == 10) {
g = 10;
}
g++;
randomNumbers.add(e);
}
}
System.out.println("Ten Unique random numbers from 1 to 20 are : " + randomNumbers);
}
}

One clever way to do this is to use exponents of a primitive element in modulus.
For example, 2 is a primitive root mod 101, meaning that the powers of 2 mod 101 give you a non-repeating sequence that sees every number from 1 to 100 inclusive:
2^0 mod 101 = 1
2^1 mod 101 = 2
2^2 mod 101 = 4
...
2^50 mod 101 = 100
2^51 mod 101 = 99
2^52 mod 101 = 97
...
2^100 mod 101 = 1
In Java code, you would write:
void randInts() {
int num=1;
for (int ii=0; ii<101; ii++) {
System.out.println(num);
num= (num*2) % 101;
}
}
Finding a primitive root for a specific modulus can be tricky, but Maple's "primroot" function will do this for you.

I have come here from another question, which has been duplicate of this question (Generating unique random number in java)
Store 1 to 100 numbers in an Array.
Generate random number between 1 to 100 as position and return array[position-1] to get the value
Once you use a number in array, mark the value as -1 ( No need to maintain another array to check if this number is already used)
If value in array is -1, get the random number again to fetch new location in array.

I have easy solution for this problem,
With this we can easily generate n number of unique random numbers,
Its just logic anyone can use it in any language.
for(int i=0;i<4;i++)
{
rn[i]= GenerateRandomNumber();
for (int j=0;j<i;j++)
{
if (rn[i] == rn[j])
{
i--;
}
}
}

Choose n unique random numbers from 0 to m-1.
int[] uniqueRand(int n, int m){
Random rand = new Random();
int[] r = new int[n];
int[] result = new int[n];
for(int i = 0; i < n; i++){
r[i] = rand.nextInt(m-i);
result[i] = r[i];
for(int j = i-1; j >= 0; j--){
if(result[i] >= r[j])
result[i]++;
}
}
return result;
}
Imagine a list containing numbers from 0 to m-1. To choose the first number, we simply use rand.nextInt(m). Then remove the number from the list. Now there remains m-1 numbers, so we call rand.nextInt(m-1). The number we get represents the position in the list. If it is less than the first number, then it is the second number, since the part of list prior to the first number wasn't changed by the removal of the first number. If the position is greater than or equal to the first number, the second number is position+1. Do some further derivation, you can get this algorithm.
Explanation
This algorithm has O(n^2) complexity. So it is good for generating small amount of unique numbers from a large set. While the shuffle based algorithm need at least O(m) to do the shuffle.
Also shuffle based algorithm need memory to store every possible outcome to do the shuffle, this algorithm doesn’t need.

Though it's an old thread, but adding another option might not harm. (JDK 1.8 lambda functions seem to make it easy);
The problem could be broken down into the following steps;
Get a minimum value for the provided list of integers (for which to generate unique random numbers)
Get a maximum value for the provided list of integers
Use ThreadLocalRandom class (from JDK 1.8) to generate random integer values against the previously found min and max integer values and then filter to ensure that the values are indeed contained by the originally provided list. Finally apply distinct to the intstream to ensure that generated numbers are unique.
Here is the function with some description:
/**
* Provided an unsequenced / sequenced list of integers, the function returns unique random IDs as defined by the parameter
* #param numberToGenerate
* #param idList
* #return List of unique random integer values from the provided list
*/
private List<Integer> getUniqueRandomInts(List<Integer> idList, Integer numberToGenerate) {
List<Integer> generatedUniqueIds = new ArrayList<>();
Integer minId = idList.stream().mapToInt (v->v).min().orElseThrow(NoSuchElementException::new);
Integer maxId = idList.stream().mapToInt (v->v).max().orElseThrow(NoSuchElementException::new);
ThreadLocalRandom.current().ints(minId,maxId)
.filter(e->idList.contains(e))
.distinct()
.limit(numberToGenerate)
.forEach(generatedUniqueIds:: add);
return generatedUniqueIds;
}
So that, to get 11 unique random numbers for 'allIntegers' list object, we'll call the function like;
List<Integer> ids = getUniqueRandomInts(allIntegers,11);
The function declares new arrayList 'generatedUniqueIds' and populates with each unique random integer up to the required number before returning.
P.S. ThreadLocalRandom class avoids common seed value in case of concurrent threads.

try this out
public class RandomValueGenerator {
/**
*
*/
private volatile List<Double> previousGenValues = new ArrayList<Double>();
public void init() {
previousGenValues.add(Double.valueOf(0));
}
public String getNextValue() {
Random random = new Random();
double nextValue=0;
while(previousGenValues.contains(Double.valueOf(nextValue))) {
nextValue = random.nextDouble();
}
previousGenValues.add(Double.valueOf(nextValue));
return String.valueOf(nextValue);
}
}

This isn't significantly different from other answers, but I wanted the array of integers in the end:
Integer[] indices = new Integer[n];
Arrays.setAll(indices, i -> i);
Collections.shuffle(Arrays.asList(indices));
return Arrays.stream(indices).mapToInt(Integer::intValue).toArray();

you can use boolean array to fill the true if value taken else set navigate through boolean array to get value as per given below
package study;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;

public class UniqueRandomNumber {
static Boolean[] boolArray;
public static void main(String s[]){
List<Integer> integers = new ArrayList<>();
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
integers.add(i);
}
//get unique random numbers
boolArray = new Boolean[integers.size()+1];
Arrays.fill(boolArray, false);
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
System.out.print(getUniqueRandomNumber(integers) + " ");
}
}
private static int getUniqueRandomNumber(List<Integer> integers) {
int randNum =(int) (Math.random()*integers.size());
if(boolArray[randNum]){
while(boolArray[randNum]){
randNum++;
if(randNum>boolArray.length){
randNum=0;
}
}
boolArray[randNum]=true;
return randNum;
}else {
boolArray[randNum]=true;
return randNum;
}
}
}

This is the most simple method to generate unique random values in a range or from an array.
In this example, I will be using a predefined array but you can adapt this method to generate random numbers as well. First, we will create a sample array to retrieve our data from.
Generate a random number and add it to the new array.
Generate another random number and check if it is already stored in the new array.
If not then add it and continue
else reiterate the step.
ArrayList<Integer> sampleList = new ArrayList<>();
sampleList.add(1);
sampleList.add(2);
sampleList.add(3);
sampleList.add(4);
sampleList.add(5);
sampleList.add(6);
sampleList.add(7);
sampleList.add(8);
Now from the sampleList we will produce five random numbers that are unique.
int n;
randomList = new ArrayList<>();
for(int i=0;i<5;i++){
Random random = new Random();
n=random.nextInt(8); //Generate a random index between 0-7
if(!randomList.contains(sampleList.get(n)))
randomList.add(sampleList.get(n));
else
i--; //reiterating the step
}
This is conceptually very simple. If the random value generated already exists then we will reiterate the step. This will continue until all the values generated are unique.
If you found this answer useful then you can vote it up as it is much simple in concept as compared to the other answers.

Check this
public class RandomNumbers {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
int n = 5;
int A[] = uniqueRandomArray(n);
for(int i = 0; i<n; i++){
System.out.println(A[i]);
}
}
public static int[] uniqueRandomArray(int n){
int [] A = new int[n];
for(int i = 0; i< A.length; ){
if(i == A.length){
break;
}
int b = (int)(Math.random() *n) + 1;
if(f(A,b) == false){
A[i++] = b;
}
}
return A;
}
public static boolean f(int[] A, int n){
for(int i=0; i<A.length; i++){
if(A[i] == n){
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
}

Below is a way I used to generate unique number always. Random function generates number and stores it in textfile then next time it checks it in file compares it and generate new unique number hence in this way there is always a new unique number.
public int GenerateRandomNo()
{
int _min = 0000;
int _max = 9999;
Random _rdm = new Random();
return _rdm.Next(_min, _max);
}
public int rand_num()
{
randnum = GenerateRandomNo();
string createText = randnum.ToString() + Environment.NewLine;
string file_path = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Windows.Forms.Application.ExecutablePath) + #"\Invoices\numbers.txt";
File.AppendAllText(file_path, createText);
int number = File.ReadLines(file_path).Count(); //count number of lines in file
System.IO.StreamReader file = new System.IO.StreamReader(file_path);
do
{
randnum = GenerateRandomNo();
}
while ((file.ReadLine()) == randnum.ToString());
file.Close();
return randnum;
}

You can use the Collections class.
A utility class called Collections offers different actions that can be performed on a collection like an ArrayList (e.g., search the elements, find the maximum or minimum element, reverse the order of elements, and so on). One of the actions it can perform is to shuffle the elements. The shuffle will randomly move each element to a different position in the list. It does this by using a Random object. This means it's deterministic randomness, but it will do in most situations.
To shuffle the ArrayList, add the Collections import to the top of the program and then use the Shuffle static method. It takes the ArrayList to be shuffled as a parameter:
import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class Lottery {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//define ArrayList to hold Integer objects
ArrayList numbers = new ArrayList();
for(int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
{
numbers.add(i+1);
}
Collections.shuffle(numbers);
System.out.println(numbers);
}
}

You can generate n unique random number between 0 to n-1 in java
public static void RandomGenerate(int n)
{
Set<Integer> st=new HashSet<Integer>();
Random r=new Random();
while(st.size()<n)
{
st.add(r.nextInt(n));
}
}

Resizing an Integer Array with Random Numbers

I'm trying to create an Integer[] that is increased by a multiple of 10 for each loop. Once the Integer[] size is set I'd like it to fill up the array with random ints. I'm able to get the size of the array to increase, but the values stored within it are null.
To me this means the array is resizing correctly, but they elements aren't being assigned to anything. I'm trying a double for-loop, with the inner loop assigning the random values. If there is a better way to do this(which I'm sure there is b/c mine isn't running!) could you please help?
this is my creation of the Int[]
public class TimeComplexity {
Integer[] data;
public TimeComplexity()
{
Random random = new Random();
for (int N = 1000; N <= 1000000; N *= 10)
{
N = random.nextInt(N);
data = new Integer[N];
//checking to see if the random numbers were added.
//array size is okay but locations aren't taking a
//random number
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(data));
}
}
In case you're interested in the output for it my main class. (this isn't part of the question but if you have suggestions I'd love them!)
public class TimeComplexityApp {
private static int MAXSIZE = 1000000;
private static int STARTSIZE = 1000;
public TimeComplexityApp()
{
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
TimeComplexity time = new TimeComplexity();
System.out.println(time);
System.out.printf("%-6s %13s %13s\n\n\n","ARRAY","int","INTEGER");
for (int N = STARTSIZE; N <= MAXSIZE; N *= 10)
{
double d = 1.0;
System.out.printf("\n%-6d %15.2f %15.2f\n", N, d, d);
}
}
}

In the first source code that shows lack initialize the elements of array of integers.
data = new Integer [N]; only creates the array of integers of size N, lack include the elements in each cell of the array.
So, just need a loop to complete each element or cell array:
for (int i = 0; i <N; i ++)
    data [i] = random.nextInt (N);
Now this array is complete and will not return NULL on each item.

On every iteration of your loop, you are creating a new array of random (int size) length. But you are never putting anything into it. The right way to do this is:
int[] vals = ...;
for (int i = 0; i < end - start; i++) {
if (vals.length < i; i++) {
//1. create new larger int[]
//2. copy the old array into the new array
//3. vals = yourNewArray
}
vals[i] = random.nextInt();
}

Add unique random numbers to an integer array

I've created an ArrayList for integers which I would like to fill with 200 numbers. Each number can be within a range between 0 and 1023.
Therefore I've written this code:
Random rand = new Random();
ArrayList<Integer> values = new ArrayList<Integer>();
int START_AMOUNT = 200;
for(int i = 0; i < START_AMOUNT;
values.add(rand.nextInt(1024));
}
As You might see, the for-loop will add 200 random numbers to the "values" ArrayList, from 0 to 1023. Now my problem is that I want the Array to have only unique numbers. How can I tell the Random class not to generate any numbers that already are existent in the ArrayList?

What I'd do is creating an array of 1023 int composed by 1,2,3,...,1023. Then you shuffle it, and you take only the 200 first terms :
List<Integer> ints = new ArrayList<Integer>();
for(int i = 1; i <= 1023; i++)
{
ints.add(i);
}
Collections.shuffle(ints);
EDIT as suggested by #Bohemian♦
List<Integer> result = ints.subList(0,200);

A Set is a Collection that cannot contain duplicate elements.
It models the mathematical set abstraction.
The Set interface contains only methods inherited from Collection
and adds the restriction that duplicate elements are prohibited.
And therefore,
public boolean add(E e)
Adds the specified element to this set if it is not already present.
[...]
If this set already contains the element,
the call leaves the set unchanged and returns false.
As such, what I'd do is use a Set, then add those to the list:
List<Integer> values = new ArrayList<Integer>();
Set<Integer> set = new HashSet<Integer>();
while(set.size() < 200)
{
set.add(rand.nextInt(1024));
}
values.addAll(set);

Use a Set:
Random rand = new Random();
Set<Integer> values = new HashSet<Integer>();
final int START_AMOUNT = 200;
while(values.size() < START_AMOUNT) {
values.add(rand.nextInt(1024));
}
List<Integer> uniqueList = new ArrayList<Integer>(values);
System.out.println(uniqueList);

You could also check if the ArrayList contains the given random number everytime you want to add one.
Random rand = new Random();
Integer r;
ArrayList<Integer> values = new ArrayList<Integer>();
int START_AMOUNT = 200;
for(int i = 0; i < START_AMOUNT; i++) {
r = rand.nextInt(1024);
If !values.contains(r) {
values.add(r);
} else {
i--;
}
}
Although i think Kabulan0lak's answer would be more performant if that is important.

Randomly choose int number

I do have the following code for taking random int numbers
for (int i=1;i<=5;i++) {
int rand= new Random().nextInt(10);
Log.d("Ramdom number", String.valueOf(rand));
}
The problem is that I dont want random numbers to be repeated, mean when I run this code it gives to me 5 numbers but two of them at least repeats. Any advice?

For a small range of numbers to choose from, this should do the trick:
ArrayList<Integer> numbers = new ArrayList<Integer>();
for (int i = 0; i < 20; ++i) {
numbers.add(i);
}
Collections.shuffle(numbers);
for (int i = 0; i < 5; ++i) {
Log.d("Random number", numbers.get(i).toString());
}

The problem is that you are creating a Random object within the loop. If the loop is a 'tight', as in this case, the Random object will be seeded with the same value. Moving the Random object initialization outside the loop should do the trick.
Random r = new Random();
for (int i=1;i<=5;i++) {
int rand= r.nextInt(10)
Log.d("Ramdom number", String.valueOf(rand));
}
EDIT:
This should work (at least it did for me)
public static Integer[] getRangedInt(int maxRange, int numCount)
{
if (maxRange < numCount)
{
throw new Exception("maxRange cannot be smaller than numCount");
}
Set<Integer set = new HashSet<Integer>();
Random r = new Random();
while (Set.size() < numCount)
{
int random = r.nextInt(maxRange);
while (!set.add(random))
{
random = r.nextInt(maxRange);
}
}
return set.toArray(new Integer[set.size()]);
}

final int maxnumbers = 5;
final int maxvalue = 10;
final Random generator = new Random();
Set<Integer> numbers = new HashSet<Integer>();
while(numbers.size() < maxnumbers){
numbers.add(random.nextInt(maxvalue));
}
After this loop you should have maxnumber non-repeating random numbers between 0 and maxvalue in the set numbers. You have to watch out so you don't get too many iterations when using this method, i.e. generating 9999 non-repeating numbers out of 10000 would probably take a long time.
Another more scalable version would be to have a list of numbers:
List<Integer> numbers = new ArrayList<Integer>();
for(int i = 0; i<maxvalue; i++){ numbers.add(i); }
Collections.shuffle(numbers);
List<Integer> randomnums = numbers.subList(0, maxnumbers);

I think you need a SET of random numbers. This hint should suffice.
If not, then please comment.

You can maintain one list of generated numbers
boolean flag=false;
Vector<int> vec = new Vector<int>();
for (int i=1;i<=5;i++) {
flag=false;
int rand= r.nextInt(10);
for(int j=0;j<vec.size();j++)
{
if(vec.get(j)==rand)
{
flag=true;
break;
}
}
if(flag)
{
continue;
}
else
{
Log.d("Ramdom number", String.valueOf(rand));
vec.add(rand);
}
}
You can maintain a vector of generated numbers and check
Is that number already generated then generate new one
else display this number

So what you're looking for isn't a list of random numbers, it's a list of 30 numbers randomly ordered.
One way is to generate a list of all possible values, then order them randomly, then peel them from the front of the list as needed. Here's some pseudocode:
for(int i=1; i<=30; i++) {
double r = rand();
while (null != aTreeSet.get(r)) r = rand();
aTreeSet.put(r, i);
}
where rand() returns some random value (not the 1-30 you seek, that's i) perhaps between 0 and 1 and aTreeSet is what you think.
The loop prevents sadness in the unlikely event of a dup being returned by rand().
To use this, pull values from aTreeSet in sorted order.
edit - Gross solution
Another way is to generate the 1-30 value, and if it isn't already in a "I have seen this" Set, add it and return the value. if it is there, generate a new random number. Repeat until an unused number is discovered. This performs poorly, relatively speaking, for the last few values. For 30 values on modern processors, it will get done in milliseconds, of course. If your max value was 1,000 instead of 30, I'd start getting concerned.

What you want is a random combination, use a Hash table to avoid repetitions
From the top of my head the code should be something like:
Ramdom r = new Random();
Hashtable<Integer, Integer> h = new Hashtable<Integer, Integer>();
while( h.keys().size() < 5 ) {
int i = r.nextInt(10);
h.put(i,i);
}
Integer[] k = (Integer[]) h.keySet().toArray();
The line
h.put(i,i);
just overrides the value if it is repeated, so only different drawn numbers will have entries in the hash table.

You can save your generated numbers in a Set and use the random number only if it is not in the set
Random r = new Random();
Set<Integer> generatedNumbers = new HashSet<Integer>();
for(int i = 1;i<=5;i++) {
int rand = r.nextInt(10)
if (!generatedNumbers.contains(rand)) {
Log.d("Ramdom number", String.valueOf(rand));
generatedNumbers.add(rand);
}
}
