random, strings and intergers in python

Question

Write python program that generates 3 random numbers between 1 and 10 one hundred times. The program should display each set of 3 numbers on a new line separated by commas. An example output should be formatted as follows:

Number set 1 is: 10,7,8   
Number set 2 is: 4,6,5
...  
Number set 100 is: 7,3,1

I need help displaying it correctly.
3 random numbers 100 times.

---

import random

mylist = [random.randint(1,11) for r in range(100)]
x = random.sample(mylist,3)
for i in range(100):
    print('Number set', i + 1, 'is', x)



   

Answer 1

The problem:

These lines of code are outside of your loop. This means that the numbers are not going to be unique every time you run the code and will stay the same for all iterations of your loop.

mylist = [random.randint(1,11) for r in range(100)]
x = random.sample(mylist,3)

Solution:

You could move the previous mentioned lines in your code to be inside your loop rather than outside:

import random

for i in range(100):
    mylist = [random.randint(1,11) for r in range(100)]
    x = random.sample(mylist,3)
    print('Number set', i + 1, 'is', x)

Or you could write a cleaner solution:

import random

for i in range(1,101):
    print(f"Number set {i} is: {random.randint(1,11)},{random.randint(1,11)},{random.randint(1,11)}")

Rather than using a list this solution will print a formatted string 100 times of 3 different random numbers. This will loop over 100 times.

You could also take a look at the other answer choices too.

random.choices() and random.sample() are good options too.

Answer 2

An even shorter answer would be:

import random
for x in range(100):
  print('Number set', x , 'is', random.sample(range(1, 11), 3))

Answer 3

if you want random numbers in array you should put random.sample() in loop

import random

mylist = [random.randint(1,11) for r in range(100)]
for i in range(100):
    x = random.sample(mylist,3)
    print('Number set', i + 1, 'is', x)

output is like

...
Number set 98 is [4, 3, 1]                                                                                                
Number set 99 is [11, 11, 4]                                                                                              
Number set 100 is [8, 3, 6]

Answer 4

The another easiest way is random.choices() ,try:

print(*[random.choices(range(1, 11), k=3) for i in range(100)])

Answer 5

Your x is being printed as a list.
What you'll need to do it convert the list in to a string and join them by ',' s

import random

l = ','.join(str(i) for i in x)` and use l in your loop

Answer 6

Here is a minimalist answer:

from random import sample

for i in range(100):
    print('Number set {i+1} is:', ','.join(sample([str(n) for n in range(1,11)],3)))

You can use this code to dynamically choose how many numbers will be in each set:

from random import randint as rd

n = 3 # Choose the amount

for i in range(1,101):
    print(f"Number set {i} is:",','.join(f"{rd(1,11)}" for _ in range(n)))

Output:

Number set 1 is: 8,1,1
Number set 2 is: 9,2,11
Number set 3 is: 4,2,9
Number set 4 is: 6,8,9
Number set 5 is: 8,9,8
