You enter how many random numbers you want and the program will generate them.</p> <p>The num is multiplied by 10 in the upper limit within the for loop to give you larger generated integers. Adjust it as needed.</p>

This recipe does just that and is designed to be easy to read and follow, showing what is possible with a few lines of Python.</p>
