How to Randomly Cycle Images With Java

Instructions

1

Open the Java editor you want to use to create the random image function. Open the Java source code file you want to edit.

2

Create an array of images, if you do not already have an image array set up. For instance, the following code creates an array of two images:

string[] images;
images[0] = "image1.jpg";
images[1] = "image2.jpg";

3

Create a random number you use to plug in to your array. The following code randomly generates a number between zero and one, because the array index starts with zero and not one:

Random gen = new Random();
int number = randomGenerator.nextInt(1);

4

Display the randomly generated image from the array. The following code shows the image to the user:

System.out.println(images[number]);
