Random Numbers However, randint( ) is not a function that is embedded into Python’s main shell Therefore, we need to import a file called “random”, then we can call the specific function from the file

Practice Define a function that recreates the guessing magic number game but this time, make the magic number randomly generated Make sure the function includes statements for whether the guess was too high or too low

Randomizing Statements It would be kind of weak if we could only generate random integers and that was it We can extend these random integers into randomizing statements and other values

Practice Write a program of my favorite game, the one I used to lure all of you into this class … Recreate the game rock, paper, scissors on Python and have your computer play fair by random!

Practice See if you can recreate the rock paper scissors game to continuously run until the user does not want to play anymore OR until the user wins 5 times OR play best out of 3
