Random Number generation
I have read various posts on unity answers on this topic but I'm yet to find an answer to my specific problem therefore i need to post a new question.(Re-post disclaimer)
My question is how can I go about generating a random number every time i press the "c" key?, the catch is that the number cant ever repeat itself.

If you just need to Add numbers and increase the Size, use list.Add()
(Code not tested)
if(Input.GetKeyDown("c"))
{
do
{
MyNumber = rand.Next(1, 10000);
}while(NumbersProduced.Contains(MyNumber))
NumbersProduced.Add(MyNumber);
}
Hope that is what you meant.
The logic is wrong - you should draw random numbers until a value not yet used is found, then simply Add it to the list:
if(Input.GetKeyDown("c")){
do { // draw numbers until a non-repeated value is found
MyNumber = rand.Next(1,10000);
} while (NumbersProduced.Contains(MyNumber));
NumbersProduced.Add(MyNumber); // add new number to the list
}
