I'm trying to write a line of code that will allow me to create a random list of 5 values, whose lengths I can vary in size. For example, I want the numbers in the list to have a length of 2 or 3 integers, like this: [11, 34, 67, 88, 93] or [100, 450, 622, 875, 998].
So far I have this:
import random mylist = [] for i in range(5): p=p+[random.randrange(?????) print(p) Can anyone help me as I've been trying to do this all day and it's driving me crazy! Thanks.
n_digits = 3 min_num = 10**(n_digits-1) max_number = 10**n_digits -1 #thanks @TomKarzes size_of_list = 5 my_list = [random.randint(min_num,max_num) for i in range(size_of_list)] 
Use sample to take arbitrary value( here 5) from a list
>>>import random >>>random.sample(range(10000),5)# or below >>>random.sample(range(10,999),5)#2-3 integer numbers range >>>random.sample(range(10,99),5)#2 integer numbers range >>>random.sample(range(100,999),5)#3 integer numbers range 
import random mylist = [] for i in range(5): m = random.choice([0,1]) mylist.append(random.randrange(10*m, (100*m)+1)) print(mylist) 
import random choices = [(10, 99), (100,999)] bounds = random.choice(choices) mylist = [random.randint(*bounds) for i in range(5)] print mylist 
[10, 50, 213, 567]?
