Hi All,

I am trying to create a program whereby an element is selected from an array and then a new array (minus the selected object is then created).

E.g.

Speed = [30,40,50,60]

target_speed = random.choice(Speed)

Speed = Speed-target_speed

Obviously the last line is incorrect - can anyone suggest how this can be done?

Thanks

Solved the issue - for anyone who wants to know for the future...

No_probe_vehicle = 20 # number of trials
Speedarray = ([30,30,30,30,40,40,40,40,50,50,50,50,60,60,60,60])

for j in range (0,No_probe_vehicle):

probe_speed = random.choice(Speedarray)
Speed[1] = probe_speed*(1609.44/3600)
print "Probe Speed", probe_speed
print "Speed Array", Speedarray
Speedarray.remove(probe_speed)
print "speed", Speed
