How to return a fun fact with a designated color using random?

I want to do 2 versions of my fun facts project.

  1. I want to return a random fact with a designated color. How do I put the fact and the color in an array?

  2. I want to return a random fact with a designated image(imageview). How do I put the fact and the image in an array?

Thanks:)

Hi Partha,

Could you define an array for your three variables ... ['fact', 'color', 'image'] then make an array of that array:

[1]['fact', 'color', 'image'] [2]['fact', 'color', 'image'] [3]['fact', 'color', 'image'] [4]['fact', 'color', 'image'] [5] ...

you get the idea.

Alternatively, look at hashmaps - they could help you too.

Steve.
