Python Random Module

Python Random Module

Random functions in a program can be used by importing the random module. A random module is used to generate random numbers. These randomly generated numbers are the pseudo random numbers because they depend on seeds.

As the numbers that are generated randomly by the random module are depended on seeds, therefore, when the values of seeds are same then the sequence will also be same. For example if we have 3 as the seeding value then we will have the following sequence:

CODE:

import random

random. seed(3)

print (random. random ())

print(random. random())

print(random. random())

OUTPUT:

0.23796462709189137

0.5442292252959519

0.36995516654807925

It can be seen in the above example that the output will be in a sequence.

Consider the following table which is the list of all the functions that are defined in the random module:
