Random number between 0 and 1 in python [duplicate]

Solution 1:

You can use random.uniform

import random
random.uniform(0, 1)

Solution 2:

random.random() does exactly that

>>> import random
>>> for i in range(10):
...     print(random.random())
... 
0.908047338626
0.0199900075962
0.904058545833
0.321508119045
0.657086320195
0.714084413092
0.315924955063
0.696965958019
0.93824013683
0.484207425759

If you want really random numbers, and to cover the range [0, 1]:

>>> import os
>>> int.from_bytes(os.urandom(8), byteorder="big") / ((1 << 64) - 1)
0.7409674234050893
