Possible to give random item on touch?

I'm basically looking for a script that would give someone left-clicking on an item one of twelve possible objects within the prim, the one object picked at random. So I'd have all twelve possibilities within the prim, but I only want each touch to give one of those items, not all of them, and the one that's chosen is chosen at random.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks. :)

This should be what you need:

CODE
default
{
    touch_start(integer total_number)
    {
        llGiveInventory(llDetectedKey(0), llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_OBJECT, (integer)(llFrand(1) * 12)));
    }
}

    }
}


Actualy you could simplify this slightly:

CODE
default
{
    touch_start(integer total_number)
    {
        llGiveInventory(llDetectedKey(0), llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_OBJECT, (integer)llFrand(12)));
    }
}

For any number of objects in the inventory:
CODE
default
{
    touch_start(integer total_number)
    {
        llGiveInventory (llDetectedKey(0), llGetInventoryName (INVENTORY_OBJECT,
                 (integer) llFrand (llGetInventoryNumber (INVENTORY_OBJECT))));
    }
}

Read elsewhere on the forums (I believe from Strife) that

llFrand(n);

doesn't work as well as

llFrand(1) * n;

so that's why I wrote mine the way it was. *shrug*
