What is random library in Python?

Question

Can anyone explain the random library in Python?

Answer 1

In Python, the random library has functions that are used to generate random numbers. Here are a few examples using the random library:

import random

random.seed(1) #To get the same set of random numbers, use same seed value

print(random.random())

print(random.randint(3, 9)) #To get the random number between 3 and 9 (includes both)

mylist = ["abc", "def", "ghi"]
print(random.choice(mylist)) #To select the random element from the sequence

print(random.uniform(5,10)) #To return a float between two numbers (includes both)
