Choose number at random from a range of numbers - Python

Question

I'm making a game and I would like make my char's damage range(4,7),

To inflict damage, im doing enemyhp - chardamage, How would I make chardamage a random number from the range(4,7) ?

Answer 1

You can do this using random.randrange :

random.randrange(4, 8)

You need to use 8 because in Python, the range is inclusive of the lower bound and exclusive of the upper bound.

Answer 2

import random
print random.randint(4,7)

....

if you want floats then

print random.uniform(4,7)

Answer 3

import random

damage = random.randint(4, 7) # To get random num from {4,5,6,7}

Answer 4

You need range(4,8) because the upper bound is always -1. range(4,7) will give you 4,5,6

from random import choice
choice(range(4,8))
