hi everyone it penguin pi can someone help with making a random generator on scratch it needs to be random in the variables

(☁ score) 

To generate what? There's already the block

(pick random () to (10))

actually so it appears randomly in the variable

What do you mean by this? Do you just mean that it's setting the variable to a random value? I don't understand your goal.

i actually want you to review this project https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/25976404/ and tell me how she manages to randomise the variable

Which variable? There isn't that much code in there so it's not hard to understand. Most of the code is in the Stage area.

she uses lists

Unless you are asking how they've got

(item (random v) of [list v] :: list)

?

That is a block that still works, but they removed as an option in Scratch 3.0.

If you want it, you could backpack it from this project to drop into your own.
But you can also achieve the same effect with:

(item (pick random (1) to (length of [list v] :: list)) of [list v] :: list)

yep that is the point tell me how it works

how do you randomize a variable using lists

you do something like (the start can differ of course)

when green flag clicked
add [example] to [list v]

you repeat the add__ to list (you can name the lists) as much as you need
