This would actually be quite similar to a card shuffle algorithm actually why not look a few up and see if you can get it to work.

Why didn't you just link him your RandomizeWord function?

Here it is, it does exactly what you want:

pawn Code:

RandomizeWord(word[])
{
    new tmp;
    new r;

    for(new i = strlen(word) - 1; i >= 0; i--)
    {
        r=random(strlen(word));
        tmp = word[i];
        word[i] = word[r];
        word[r] = tmp;
    }
}

Example code:

pawn Code:

#include <a_samp>

public OnFilterScriptInit()
{
    new word[9];
    
    word = "Computer";
    RandomizeWord(word);

    printf("%s", word);

    return true;
}

RandomizeWord(word[])
{
    new tmp;
    new r;

    for(new i = strlen(word) - 1; i >= 0; i--)
    {
        r=random(strlen(word));
        tmp = word[i];
        word[i] = word[r];
        word[r] = tmp;
    }
}

Output:

Code:

[16:11:41]   Loading filterscript 'comp.amx'...
[16:11:41] Cpumeotr
