How to simulate random normal variate Python

First of all, I am extremely new with coding.

I got the assignment to "Simulate many normally distributed random numbers, then calculate mean and standard deviation." using Python. To begin with, I'm having some difficulties interpreting the question...

Anyway, I think I've figured out how to generate a wished number of random numbers from a standard normal distribution using a for loop (though I'm not sure this is what's asked for). What I'm struggling with is to use these numbers for calculations - since they are random I don't know how to use lists.

Thank You!
