I have the following functions:
function TfrmTickets.GetLogin(Prefix: String): String;
var
i, Digit: Integer;
begin
Result := Prefix;
Randomize;
for i := Length(Result) + 1 to 8 do
begin
Digit := Random(10);
if Digit = 0 then
Digit := 1;
Result := Result + IntToStr(Digit)
end;
end;
function TfrmTickets.GetPassword: String;
var
i, Digit: Integer;
begin
Randomize;
Result := '';
for i := 1 to 8 do
begin
Digit := Random(10);
if Digit = 0 then
Digit := 1;
Result := Result + IntToStr(Digit)
end;
end;
I am calling this functions one after another in a loop, 10 times.
And as the result i have login = password = somestring1 for 4 calls,
login = password = somestring2 for other 6 calls. So i have the same
strings generated several times. Whats wrong?
I need to generate different values for login and password every time.
Thanx,
Eugene.
