16.3. Math Random

16.3.1. random

Table 16.7. random

Function	Description
random.random()	Random float: 0.0 <= x < 1.0
random.randint(min, max)	Return a random integer N such that min <= N <= max. Max is included
random.gauss(mu, sigma)	Gaussian distribution. mu is the mean, and sigma is the standard deviation
random.shuffle(list)	Randomize order of list (in place)
random.choice(list)	Single random element from a sequence
random.sample(list, k)	k random elements from list without replacement
random.seed(a=None, version=2)	Initialize the random number generator. If a is omitted or None, the current system time is used

16.3.2. Pseudo and Pure random numbers

• What are pseudorandom numbers?

• Why it is not possible to generate a pure random number?

• What is random.seed(0)?

Code 16.7. Solution

"""
* Assignment: Math Random Sample
* Complexity: easy
* Lines of code: 1 lines
* Time: 5 min

English:
    1. Print 6 random integers without repetition in range from 1 to 49
    2. Run doctests - all must succeed

Polish:
    1. Wyświetl 6 losowych i nie powtarzających się liczb całkowitych z
       zakresu od 1 do 49.
    2. Uruchom doctesty - wszystkie muszą się powieść

Tests:
    >>> import sys; sys.tracebacklimit = 0

    >>> sorted(result)
    [3, 17, 25, 27, 32, 33]

Code 16.8. Solution

"""
* Assignment: Math Random Matrix
* Complexity: medium
* Lines of code: 4 lines
* Time: 13 min

English:
    1. Use only `random` module
    2. Set `random.seed(0)`
    3. Define `matrix: list[list[int]]` with generated
       16x16 random digits (0-9 inclusive)
    4. Define `result: int` with sum of inner 4x4 elements
    5. Inner matrix is exactly in the middle of outer
    6. Run doctests - all must succeed

Polish:
    1. Używaj tylko modułu `random`
    2. Ustaw `random.seed(0)`
    3. Zdefiniuj `matrix: list[list[int]]` z wygenerowanymi
       16x16 losowymi cyframi (0-9 włącznie)
    4. Zdefiniuj `result: int` z sumą środkowych 4x4 elementów
    5. Środkowa macierz jest dokładnie w środku większej
    6. Uruchom doctesty - wszystkie muszą się powieść

Tests:
    >>> import sys; sys.tracebacklimit = 0
