title: Compute random number over certain time interval with Python
body: <p>I did some research before posting but seem to be at a lost (not too experienced in coding).</p>
  
  <p>I am attempting to generate or compute a random number for certain time interval with Python. I'm not looking for full code, I want help using the time library if that is the correct one to use.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Pseudo-code:</strong> <p>
  Allow python [PC] to compute a random number for 3 seconds 
   <p>           ------> Store the computed generation in a value <em>(i can handle this)</em></p>
  
  <p><p>
  <p>
  <p>
  <p>
  I would then use the random generated value to link access a python list (which would be automatically generated via a random number generation as well but i can figure that out).</p>
