You can use random library and use the choice option and set those values as options

import random

mylist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]

print(random.choice(mylist))

`random` is a builtin module in pyhton, you don't need to install it. – Jhanzaib Humayun May 01 '22 at 05:42

There is such a function as mentioned here - random.choice(). It is built-in Python library We have an numpy alternative, which is more optimized for these types of operations. It need to be installed by pip install numpy

import numpy as np
rand_choice = np.random.choice(a = 5, size = 5, replace = True, p = weights)
