Hi Alberto, Here's how to do it:
------------------------------- import random def generateKey(): nums = "0123456789" strNumber = "" count = 0 while (count < 8): strNumber += nums[random.randrange(len(nums))] count += 1 print strNumber # A quick test... count = 0 while (count < 10000): generateKey() count += 1 ------------------------------- Byron :-) --- Alberto Troiano wrote: > Hi everyone > > I need to generate a password..It has to be an 8 digit number and it has to > be random > > The code I've been trying is the following: > > > import random > random.randrange(00000000,99999999) > > The code works but sometimes it picks a number with 7 digits.
