Not Random Enough
Posted: Thu Nov 06, 2014 4:55 am
Hey guys. I'm creating an economics model in C#, and it's going great, but I can't seem to get my population random enough and I'm not sure why. Included is the code, I'll go through and comment it up more tomorrow. Any help?
Code: Select all
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace EconomicSimulator
{
class Citizen
{
public static int Population;
public static List<long> citizenList = new List<long>();
public static void Populate()
{
long income;
Random rnd = new Random();
int ageRand = rnd.Next(30, 41);
Population = 40000000;
for (int i = 0; i <= Population; i++)
{
int Age = rnd.Next(0, 100);
if (Age < ageRand)
{
Population--;
}
}
for (int i = 0; i <= Population; i++)
{
double incomeChance = (rnd.Next(0, 100000) + rnd.Next(0,1750000))/2;
if (incomeChance <= 1)
{
income = 10000000 * rnd.Next(10000, 70000);
citizenList.Add(income);
// Over $10,000,000
}
else if (incomeChance == 2)
{
income = 1000*rnd.Next(5000, 10000);
citizenList.Add(income);
// $5,000,000 to $10,000,000
}
else if (incomeChance > 2 && incomeChance <= 6)
