random module is used to generate random numbers in Python. Not actually random, rather this is used to generate pseudo-random numbers. That implies that these randomly generated numbers can be determined.
random.getrandbits()
The getrandbits() method of the random module is used to return an integer with a specified number of bits. The number of bits required in the result is passed as an parameter in the method. Examples :
Input : getrandbits(4) Output : 14 (the binary equivalent of 14 is 1110 which has 4 bits) Input : getrandbits(16) Output : 60431 (the binary equivalent of 60431 is 1110110000001111 which has 16 bits)
Example 1:
Python3
# import the random module import random # a random number with 4 bits print (random.getrandbits( 4 )) # a random number with 16 bits print (random.getrandbits( 16 )) |
Output :
10 49195
Example 2:
Python3
# import the random module import random # 5 random number with 4 bits for i in range ( 4 ): print (random.getrandbits( 4 )) |
Output:
10 0 1 14
