Okay, now I've got myself lost. Awhile back I posted a message needing
help with random characters. Michael Egan (thanks Michael!)was kind enough
to send me his code, and others always gave snippets of info.
I modified it to what I needed, and it worked great. However, now I am
trying to figure something out additional to it.
Basically, I need to generate 50 groups of characters. Each group will be
made up of 3 different random (sets of) characters.
the first set will be random characters from this group:
a, b, c, d, e, f, g
the second random from this group:
es, is, null
and the third from this group:
null, ', '', ''' (yes those are single quotes)
together, I want something like this:
ces' c'' a''' gis'' bes fis'''
and so on..
I'm sure this seems strange, but if you use Lilypond you probably know
what it's for.
Anyhow, if I can get any additional pointers that would be great. I don't
want to seem like I'm asking everything to be written for me, but I just
don't seem to have the programming mindset for things like this.
Thank you in advance!
Bryan
