Checking the number of a value in an array

Hi,

I added an one dimensional array (width:4, height:1, depth:1) which has 4 cells. And with floor(random(9)) expression filled the cells which the numbers from 0 to 9.

I want to check how many times a value exists in this array.

So I created attached event. My problem is, this event continuosly add 1 to global variable X. I want to check the array once and then stop.

As an example, if the array cells are (1,4,4,7) and I want to check how many 4's are placed in the array (in this example 2), how can I do it.

Thanks in advance...

Add a triggering condition to your top level event, the one with the for each element. For example on button pressed or on click or something.

Your loop is happening once every frame. You need some event to make it happen only once. As oosyrag already stated, a mouse click, keyboard key pressed, or a button press.

Just FYI, floor(random(9)) will actually give you values between 0 - 8. Here's a quote from the manual regarding the Random system expression, "Generate a random float from 0 to x, not including x"
