11 work out how many applicants. $apps = rand (6,120); set up some arrays as lookups for the values from the d10 rolls $prev = array (“Pilot”, “Astronaut”, “Pacifier Pilot”, “Command”, “Astronaut”, “Technical”, “Legal”, “Medical”, “Logistics”, “Marine”); $crim = array (“Small Ship”, “Capital Ship”, “Logs Ship”, “Shipyard”, “Training”, “Port Staff”, “Special Duties”, “Staff”,“Staff”, “Naval Academy”, “Command”, “Command”, “Admiralty”, “Command”); $refs = array (“Poor”, “Guarded”, “Guarded”, “Guarded”, “Average”, “Good”, “Good”, “Good”, “Excellent”, “Excellent”); $Ranks = array (“Ensign”, “Lieutenant”, “Lt.Commander”, “Commander”, “Captain”, “Flag Captain”, “Rear Admiral”, “Vice Admiral”, “Admiral of the White”, “Admiral of the Black”,“Grand Admiral”);
