Pythons Random Modules

Can we use randint to randomize the series of values taken from a user for eg. print(""Enter five numbers) a=list(range(5)) for i in range(5): a[i]=int(input()) random.randint(a) print(a)

If you just want to randomize the order of the array, random.shuffle(a) will do the job.

randint(1,10)-5 would yield -4 to 5 to be added to entered number

We can, but your example won't work.

Definitely not like you coded it. Let's say I enter 10 30 40 20 0 as my five numbers. What kind of values would you like to see? +/-10. I assume you want your numbers to be somewhat related to the entered numbers.

from random import shuffle as s a=list(range(5)) for i in range(len(a)): a[i]=int(input()) s(a) print(a)

Do it yourself, you'll learn more from it. You're on the right track.

I think you want to print one of the 5 inputs? Remember that you access the single inputs in your array with a[i], so you have to randomize your i.
