Full name
random.randrange
Library
random
Syntax
random.randrange(stop)
random.randrange(start, stop[, step])
Description
The random.randrange function returns a random element extracted from the sequence of integers generated by range (start, stop, step).
Parameters
- start: First number a in the sequence.
- stop: Limit value of the sequence.
- step: (Optional) value to add to each number to generate the next one.
Result
The random.randrange function returns an integer.
Examples
We can generate a random integer extracted from the sequence [2, 4, 6, 8] with the following code:
random.randrange(2, 9, 2)
6
Note that the number 9 has been used as the second argument since the sequence from which to perform the extraction does not include the stop value.
