:book::love: Learning AS3 and loving it 🙂

This creates a random number of items from 1 to 10.  
I’d like to know, depending on how many items were created, how to play a sound when clicking each item, in increments:  
[COLOR=#0000ff]Example: if 3 items are created,  
1st click will play sound “one”.  
2nd click will play sound “two”,  
3rd click will play sound “three”[/COLOR][COLOR=#008000]  
[/COLOR]  
thanks!
