Thanks Gareth, That's very useful. After centuries (it seems) as a C/C++ programmer I find WPL a really interesting new landscape for me. I love so many aspects of it, but knocking up simple programs like this still need thinking about. Thanks again, Garfield
This may be a start:
tasklist = {<|"test 1" -> 1|>, <|"test 2" -> 2|>, <|"test 3" -> 3|>, <|"test 4" -> 4|>, <|"test 5" -> 5|>}; For[i = 0, i < 10, i++, Pause[1]; Print[{i, RandomChoice[tasklist]}]]
