%This function will randomly select which DGRP lines to test.  To use,
%pass it a list of the available strains to choose from, and
%the number of strains that you want to pick (e.g. 10).

%The output will be a list of the strain numbers to be tested.  It will use
%random selection with replacement, so look out for duplicates.

index=randsample(length(strainList),numStrains);

out=strainList(index,1);
