I've used this script to generate an array of random numbers with a numeric key. I got an array of over 200,000 on this system, and got <1000 using the examples submitted previously. I haven't managed to return the array variable outside the function, but have written it to a database. <?php function rand_array($start, $end, $rangemin, $rangemax) { $array = array_fill($start, $end, 1); foreach($array as $key => $value) { $value = rand($rangemin,$rangemax); print "$key: $value<br>\n"; } } $start = 1; $end = 1000; $rangemin = 1; $rangemax = 20000; rand_array($start, $end, $rangemin, $rangemax); ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.rand.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+54433 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54433&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54433&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54433&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54433&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54433&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54433&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+54433&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
