Python: How to print my simple poem -

i know how print out sentences using triplet poem program. program randomly picks list of nouns use.

my program:

import random  def nouns():     nounpersons = ["cow","crowd","hound","clown"];     nounplace = ["town","pound","battleground","playground"];     rhymes = ["crowned","round","gowned","found","drowned"];      nounpersons2 = ["dog","frog","hog"];     nounplace2 = ["fog","prague","smog"];     rhymes2 = ["log","eggnog","hotdog"];      nounlist1 = [nounpersons,nounplace,rhymes]     nounlist2 = [nounpersons2,nounplace2,rhymes2]     nounslist = [nounlist1, nounlist2]     randompick = random.choice(nounslist)     return(randompick)  verbs = ["walked","ran","rolled","biked","crawled"]; nouns() 

for example, have "the cow walked town. drowned." , replace nouns/rhyme(cow, town,drowned) , verb(walked) randomizer.

would use random.randint in way?

i need general print statement example showed using randomizer randomly pick between nouns/rhymes.

as usual (for me), there may more pythonic approach, have working, did 3 things:

1. assigned call nouns() function 'chosen_list' variable. way returned 'randompick' gets used.

2. built in selection step individual words lists in 'chosen_list' , verb list

3. added final print statement formatting assemble words in sentence

the code:

import random def nouns():      nounpersons = ["cow","crowd","hound","clown"];     nounplace = ["town","pound","battleground","playground"];     rhymes = ["crowned","round","gowned","found","drowned"];      nounpersons2 = ["dog","frog","hog"];     nounplace2 = ["fog","prague","smog"];     rhymes2 = ["log","eggnog","hotdog"];      nounlist1 = [nounpersons,nounplace,rhymes]     nounlist2 = [nounpersons2,nounplace2,rhymes2]     nounslist = [nounlist1, nounlist2]     randompick = random.choice(nounslist)      return randompick  verbs = ["walked","ran","rolled","biked","crawled"]  # change 1. chosen_list = nouns()  # select single words lists - change 2.  noun_subj = random.choice(chosen_list[0]) noun_obj = random.choice(chosen_list[1]) rhyme_word = random.choice(chosen_list[2]) verb_word = random.choice(verbs)  # insert words in text line - change 3.  print ("the {} {} {}. {}.".format(noun_subj, verb_word, noun_obj, rhyme_word))
