Describe how to generate random numbers in Python...

Answer / chaitanya

Thee standard module random implements a random number generator.

There are also many other in this module, such as:

uniform(a, b) returns a floating point number in the range [a, b].

randint(a, b)returns a random integer number in the range [a, b].

random()returns a floating point number in the range [0, 1].

Following code snippet show usage of all the three functions of module random:

Note: output of this code will be different evertime it is executed.

import random

i = random.randint(1,99)# i randomly initialized by integer between range 1 & 99

j= random.uniform(1,999)# j randomly initialized by float between range 1 & 999

k= random.random()# k randomly initialized by float between range 0 & 1

print("i :" ,i)

print("j :" ,j)

print("k :" ,k)

__________

Output -

('i :', 64)

('j :', 701.85008797642115)

('k :', 0.18173593240301023)

Output-

('i :', 83)

('j :', 56.817584548210945)

('k :', 0.9946957743038618)
