Hi Merrie, The manual section you want is the random module: http://docs.python.org/lib/module-random.html In particular, the randrange() function will help you out here. random.randrange() is equivalent to generating a list using the builtin function range(), and then choosing one element from that list at random. For example, I can generate some random numbers in the range 0..9 like this: >>> import random >>> for i in range(10): ... print random.randrange(10) ... 8 2 0 9 7 5 8 0 7 9 >>> HTH! -- John. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
