Hi all,
I need to generate 200 sets of 4 different random numbers between 1-21. For
each position in the set, (ie random number 1, random number 2, etc) each
number can only be selected 10 times. At least this is what I think I need
to do. I can generate random numbers in Excel, but I don't see a way to
generate a set of 4 random numbers.
Here's what I'm trying to do.
I have to assign 200 people to 21 tables for 4 different meals at an
upcoming conference.
200 people
21 tables
10 people per table
4 meals
Everyone should sit at a different table for each meal.
Except there are 12 people who will be assigned to the first 12 tables for
each meal.
Ideally, each person should sit with a different 9 people for each meal.
So I need to figure out a way to assign each person to a different table for
each meal,
Make sure it's a different 10 people for each meal
and make sure there are no more than 10 people assigned to a single table
for each meal and table 1 can only have 7 people randomly assigned to it.
There is an extra table in case there are last minute attendees, so it works
out that each table will have either 10 or 9 or in a few cases, 8 people per
table. That's ok, but I want less than that any table.
Anyone have any ideas? I'm better at Excel, but I have MS Access available
also.
Thanks,
Christine
