How do I add the output of 8 randomly generated numbers in python?

Question

elif a == "other":
    numberset = 0
    for count in range(8):
        nnn = randrange(33,126)
        print(nnn)
        numberset += nnn

I need to find out how to add all of the 8 generated numbers to make a total and then set that as a variable.

Answer 1

Why not

numberset = sum(randrange(33, 126) for _ in range(8))

The argument of sum is a generator expression, i.e. it produces a generator that sum can iterate on, summing all the values given.

As you can see, I have used the _ name as the counter. It is a naming convention for those variables that are not used further (i.e. in your loop, count is never used)

In case you want to print out the numbers as well (and keep them maybe) you can do

numbers = [randrange(33, 126) for _ in range(8)] # list comprehension
numberset = sum(numbers)
for n in numbers:
    print(n)
print('Sum is', numberset)

which produces

112
69
77
33
56
55
118
65
Sum is 585
