I do a stability study each week with a program I have built. I use a 6" x 6" angle which I place in different location on the table and then run the program 5 times in that location. I would like to come up with a way to have my program chose the location randomly for me. Does anyone have a idea how I might be able to do this. I am using a RACO PLATE, with holes located from A1 to SS37 so I do have a defined group of numbers "locations".
Random numbers?

Open excel
label cells with the appropriate numbers
put borders around the cells
print out spreadsheet
cut along boarder lines
place small pieces of paper in a plastic container with lid
place lid on container
shake thoroughly
close eyes pick out a number
repeat tomorrow

Simply turn your back on the machine, grab the thing you measure, toss it over your back onto the table, measure it where it stops.sigpic

So, you need a random number from 1 to 1665 OR you need 2 random numbers, 1 to 37 and 1 to 45. You can do this easily in Excel and then use those results to place the detail you are checking.
Excel formula: =RANDBETWEEN(1,37)
Personally, I would use the 2 random number method, one for the row and one for the column. Hit F9 to get a new set of numbers.sigpic
