Loop to generate random combinations

Posted 10-30-2018 02:43 PM (524 views)

Hello, 

 

I have a dataset with 2000+ random first names, 1000+ first names, and 100+ cities. I wanted to find a way of creating a random combinations of the three variables so that my end result would be a dataset with 2000+ first name, last name, and cities. I have a feeling I would need a do loop of some sort but im stuck. Thanks!

Please see the replies in the second thread you opened for the same question (probably by mistake).
