I am also a new programmer and every time it runs, I get the same order of answers - I have put 6 values in the array and they appear - 6, 3, 5, 5, 6, 2, 3, 5, 2, 4 ......

I can close the sim, recompile and sure enough they appear in this order everytime.

Any ideas?

NSArray *myArray= [NSArray arrayWithObjects: @"1111",@"2222",@"3333",@"4444",@"5555",@"6666" , nil];
int length = [myArray count];

//choose an item - C magic happens here
int chosen = (float)random() * length /RAND_MAX;

NSString *item = [myArray objectAtIndex: chosen];
lblText.text = [NSString stringWithFormat: @"%@", item];
