I not long ago finished my project which comments on a video based on a keyword on YouTube, it will pick a random comment using the random library.The program has been acting strange when "randomizing" the comments to add to theYouTube videos. I'm starting to think I may need to improve the randomness, the fact being thatit has chosen the 4th comment (out of 9) 7 times, and the 9th one 3 times. Both of theseresults occur after each other, in other words, it is sending the same message in a rowwhen it's meant to pick randomly and not repeat.Is there any way I can increase how random this is? If you know, please do tell me, I will appreciate it a bunch!
PS: This is more of stopping it from repeating the same sentence on YouTube.
code:
if __name__ == "__main__": from googleapiclient.errors import HttpError import random import time import sys # Comments are getting loaded comments = load_comments('Comments.txt') # Getting the number of comments you want to add number_of_comments = int(input('Enter the number of comments: ')) count, cycle, videoid_store = 0, 1, [] # Getting the keyword keyword = input('Enter the Keyword: ') # This loop keeps running until all comments have been added youtube = authentication() while count < number_of_comments: print("Searching for videos .. (Cycle:%d)" %cycle) time.sleep(10) random.shuffle(comments)
