Being a geek, I have a lot of geek friends. Being friends, we tend to eat lunch together. The only problem is sometimes we have a hard time deciding where to go to eat lunch. This invariably leads to the "Where do you wanna eat?", "I dunno, where do you wanna eat go?", "It doesn't matter to me, you decide." Well here is a simple solution to this daily dilemma.
Our UI has just enough class to be exciting and interesting, yet simple enough not to cause us too much grief. Seek balance in all things. The concept: restaurant logos flash across the screen, eventually stopping on the chosen food establishment. The application is visual, which is appealing. The application is clear. The user can easily tell which restaurant is chosen by following the ginormous arrow. A light blue background give the app a little warm and the arrow adds character.
We have a folder called LunchLogos. Any png file found is the folder is added to an generic image list at the start of the program. When the user clicks Spin, the logos are randomly displayed on the screen for a random number of times before stopping on a chosen eatery.
If you don't like a restaurant all you have to do is remove the logo from the folder. If you have a restaurant you like that isn't in the list all you have to do is add the logo to the same folder, simple, simple.
Again for this application we used the RNGCryptoServiceProvider class to generate a statistically sound random number. And we have created a simple randomize list function to mix things up a bit. Last but not least, we use the Mod function to make sure we can loop around the list when picking images.
Possibilities:
Well, I think it would be cool if there was a background sound to go along with the spin. I also think a UI for adding and deleting logos would be great. It would be nice to be able to assign weights to each restaurant, and to favor new choices over previously selected places.
