Hi guys, I was searching on the forum, but could not find a solution… I need help with such a thing: Let’s assume that we have three items on the list, and we want to draw them, so that each of them has a different probability of being drawn. 1 item = 60% 2 item = 30% 3 item = 10% Is it possible to program this probability? kind regards SaneFungus ---

It is possible. This code will make the job done ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/7/e/7e9d0a66d966adcef691185abbf7de7fdb0a20a5.png) -Roumak ---

Thank you very much Roumak! This is exactly what I meant 😀 I am glad that this problem can be solved in such a simple and elegant way! Best regards! ---

This topic is a year old so I don’t know if you’re going to get an answer from @roumak-coder (it helps to notify a user this way). But typically when something is done using variables, it’s either because it requires variables or because it’s so much easier/quicker with variables. Since you have the blocks in the screenshot above, why not try them and then ask specific questions if you still need help? ---
