Hey Guys,

I was wondering if anyone could point me to a tutorial, or instruct on how to program a list generator. The idea is basically to get a few inputs from the user, and then based on that data generate a list.

For example for a catering list generator, the user inputs they will have 20 guests, lunch and desert, and Flash returns a randomly generated list like: “6 tacos, 14 sandwiches, 10 cookies, 10 muffins and 20 bottles of water”.

I have experience with Flash, but I’m not sure where to start. I think if I pulled this off it would be the coolest thing in the universe. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
