Pick random choice from variables
 
How do i make something with python that will ask the user for input, and then use the random.choice function to select a random choice from what the user entered.

Below is a snippet example:

import random as rand

selection_enter = raw_input("Enter Selection List of Three Items
Seperated By Commas: ")

selection_list = selection_enter.split(",")

print selection_list

rand_choice = rand.choice(selection_list)

print rand_choice

Re: Pick random choice from variables
 
The first one I sent directly to you, but it used randint with a list.
The second should be what you're looking for. If not, then ask a
little further what you need explained.
