Question

create a python function (only) that generates 10 random numbers within a specific range. Every time a number is generated, it is appended to a list (you need to initialize a list). Then the function counts how many times a number is repeated in the created list (you can choose any number to count). The function returns the list, the number you have chosen and its count.

--define the function here ---

# importing random module to generate random numbers
import random
# function definition
def randomCount():
# creating an empty list
randomList = []
# for loop to create 10 random numbers
for i in range(0,10):
# generating random number within the range(1,20)
n = random.randint(1,20)
# appending the number into the list
randomList.append(n)
# prompt user to enter number to be counted
number=int(input("Enter the number to be counted: "))
# initialize count with 0
count=0
# iterate through the list values
for i in range(0,10):
# if the list element is the number,then increment count by 1
if randomList[i]==number:
count=count+1
# return randomList,number and count
return randomList,number,count
# main() function
def main():
# calling randomCount() function
randomNumbers,num,count=randomCount()
# printing the returned values
print("The produced random number list is : ",randomNumbers)
print("The counted number is: ",num)
print("Count is: ",count)
# calling the main() function
main()
