Question

Write a function name randintlist which takes three parameters:

1.minimum

2.maximum

3.length

The randintlist function should return a list of random int values (using random.randint) where the minimum and maximum values of those random numbers are the argument values for the first two parameters, and the length of the list(count of random integers ) is given by the argument value of the third parameter

For the list of random int values returned by randintlist no two values should be equal (e.g.,[1, 2, 1] is not valid, but [4, 1, 2] is valid)

Prompt the user whether they want to play a guessing game of easy, medium, or hard difficulty. Repeatedly re-prompt the user until their response is one of: easy, medium, hard

Using your randintlist function, generate a list of random int values between 1 and 10 (inclusive of both 1 and 10) whose length is:

1. 5, if user responded they wanted an easy game

2. 3, medium game

3. 1, hard game

Prompt the user to guess a number between 1 and 10. Repeatedly re-prompt the user if their response is not between 1 and 10 (don’t worry about user responses that are not valid int values)

If the user’s response (guess) is one of the values in the generated list of values (from randintlist function) then print ”You won” and if the user’s response (guess) is not one of the values print ”You lost” (capitalization matters in your output)

Python code pasted below.

import random
#function for random integer list generation
def randintlist(minimum,maximum,length):
     #initializing an ampty list to store random numbers
     randomlist=[]
     for i in range(length):
          #random numbers are generated and added to randomlist
          randomlist.append(random.randint(minimum,maximum))
     #For avoiding duplicate values, it is casted to set and stored again    
     randomlist=set(randomlist)
     #Converting back to list
     randomlist=list(randomlist)
     return randomlist
#main program
while True:
     #reading for easy,medium or hard
     game=input("Whether you want to play a guessing game,enter(easy,medium,hard):")
     if game=="easy":
          length=5
          while True:
               n=int(input("Enter a number between 1 and 10:"))
               if n>=1 and n<=10:
                    #generating a random integer list of length 5
                    numbers=randintlist(1,10,5)
                    print(numbers)
                    for item in numbers:
                         if item==n:
                              print("You won")
                              break
                    else:print("You lost")
                    break
          break
     elif game=="medium":
          length=3
          while True:
               n=int(input("Enter a number between 1 and 10:"))
               if n>=1 and n<=10:
                    #generating a random integer list of length 3
                    numbers=randintlist(1,10,3)
                    print(numbers)
                    for item in numbers:
                         if item==n:
                              print("You won")
                              break
                    else:print("You lost")
                   
                    break
          break
     elif game=="hard":
          length=1
          while True:
               n=int(input("Enter a number between 1 and 10:"))
               if n>=1 and n<=10:
                    #generating a random integer list of length 1
                    numbers=randintlist(1,10,1)
                    print(numbers)
                    for item in numbers:
                         if item==n:
                              print("You won")
                              break
                    else:print("You lost")
                    break
          break
