Random Numbers

[skimask]

I am trying to make a random numbrt generator that choses 5 numbers between 1 and 8. The problem i am having is that if the first number is 6 then the sequence will always be 61253, and if it is 1 then the sequence is always 12537, and so on for all 1 to 8. Any sugestions would be appreciated.

Random numbers with PBP aren't really random, they're pseudo-random.
If you seed the random number generator with X, you'll always get Y. That's just the way it is. That's what the PBP manual means by 'walking length'. All things being equal, the random number output will repeat itself with the same sequence if you use it exactly the same way every time.
Add some element of real random-ness, and you might get what you want...i.e. start up one of the timers and pre-seed the random value with the timer value when a button is pushed, that's just one example.
