I did go over it before posting the thread, but given how specific that problem is I kind of hoped there would be a more general and simpler solution available than whatever it is doing. Needless to say, I have no idea how it works, and Coda itself throws some length…

I see. Actions are necessary to evaluate formulas on demand, and therefore generate independent random numbers. For my current use-case I can use a table just to store the list of numbers. It also occurred to me that I can take a random number and “split it apart” to create several different random…

As of Coda recent version (July 2024) elegant formula solution: Sequence(start,end).RandomSample(quantity,false) example use: Sequence(1,9999).RandomSample(12,false) results into a list of 12 random numbers between 1 to 9999, allow same random number appear multiple times false. mixed use ca…
