Python Random moduleThe Python random module functions depend on a pseudo-random number generator function random(), which generates the float number between 0.0 and 1.0. There are different types of functions used in a random module which is given below: random.random()This function generates a random float number between 0.0 and 1.0. random.randint()This function returns a random integer between the specified integers. random.choice()This function returns a randomly selected element from a non-empty sequence. Example # importing "random" module. import random # We are using the choice() function to generate a random number from # the given list of numbers. print ("The random number from list is : ",end="") print (random.choice([50, 41, 84, 40, 31])) Output: The random number from list is : 84 random.shuffle()This function randomly reorders the elements in the list. random.randrange(beg,end,step)This function is used to generate a number within the range specified in its argument. It accepts three arguments, beginning number, last number, and step, which is used to skip a number in the range. Consider the following example. # We are using randrange() function to generate in range from 100 # to 500. The last parameter 10 is step size to skip # ten numbers when selecting. import random print ("A random number from range is : ",end="") print (random.randrange(100, 500, 10)) Output: A random number from range is : 290 random.seed()This function is used to apply on the particular random number with the seed argument. It returns the mapper value. Consider the following example. # importing "random" module. import random # using random() to generate a random number # between 0 and 1 print("The random number between 0 and 1 is : ", end="") print(random.random()) # using seed() to seed a random number random.seed(4) Output: The random number between 0 and 1 is : 0.4405576668981033
