I have something like the following:
pen = [1, 2, 3, 4]
pencil = [2,3,4,5]
paper = [3,4,5,6]
group_of_items = [pen, pencil, paper]
I want to randomly select a certain number of lists from this list of lists so that the result is something like this:
[pencil, pen]
I found the following from another question (altered to match my situation).
import random
pen = [1, 2, 3, 4]
pencil = [2,3,4,5]
paper = [3,4,5,6]
group_of_items = [pen, pencil, paper]
num_to_select = 2
list_of_random_items = random.sample(group_of_items, num_to_select)
print(list_of_random_items)
It gives something like this.
[[2, 3, 4, 5], [1, 2, 3, 4]]
So, it's close but no cigar. I also found this.
import numpy as np
pen = [1, 2, 3, 4]
pencil = [2,3,4,5]
paper = [3,4,5,6]
group_of_items = [pen, pencil, paper]
num_to_select = 2
random_list = np.random.choice(group_of_items, num_to_select, replace=False)
print(random_list)
But it doesn't work with a list of lists (multi-dimensional).
How can I accomplish my goal?
Oh, and I don't want any repeats.
Note: my coding experience is rather limited. I mostly copy and paste what I find online, only making small changes.
