Using random module, we can generate a random element from a list. As shown in the example above, the list my_list is passed as a parameter to choice() method of random module.
Note: The output may vary.
Example 2: Using secrets module
import secrets
my_list = [1, 'a', 32, 'c', 'd', 31]
print(secrets.choice(my_list))
Output
c
Using choice() method of secrets module, you can select a random element from the list.
It is cryptographically safer than the random module.
