Exercise 1

For this exercise we will be importing some existing functionality from the standard library. The random module gives us the ability to generate pseudo-random numbers.

Try the code below in the Python interpreter.

from random import randrange
print(randrange(10))
# 7 
print(randrange(10))
# 1
print(randrange(10))
# 5
print(randrange(10))
# 6
print(randrange(10))
# 5

Exercise 2

Create a program called higher_or_lower.py

The program must meet the following criteria.

• A function that asks the user to provide a number between 0 and 10.
• A function that returns a random number between 1 and 10.
• A function that evaluates the randomly generated number against the user's guess.
• At the end, the program must output the following:
  • The random number that was generated.
  • The user's guess.
  • An indication if the user guess correctly or if the user's guess was too high/too low.

Exercise 3

Copy the greet.py program from part 2 and name it multilingual_greeter.py

Extend the program so that it meets the following requirements.

• Add a function called language_input that gives the user an option to choose 1 of at least 3 languages.
• Ask the user for his name in the chosen language.
• Greet the user in the chosen language.
