Reinvent the “import random” feature

Question

I am making a Rock Paper Scissors game but I can’t use the import random and I do not know how reinvent it, I have a idea how and that is using percentages like there is a 33% chance to throw rock and 33% for every other throw but I cannot use the import random feature! Any help???

Answer 1

You can read the time when the program/function starts to run, divide it by 3 and check the remainder:

import time
x = int(time.time())
a = x % 3

a has 1/3 probability to be either 0, 1 or 2.
