def RandomString (length,distribution):
string = ""
for t in distribution:
((t[1])/length) * t[1] += string
return shuffle (string)
This returns a syntax error as described in the title. In this example, distribution
is a list of tuples, with each tuple containing a letter, and its distribution, with all the distributions from the list adding up to 100, for example:
[("a",50),("b",20),("c",30)]
And length
is the length of the string that you want.
In case it helps someone, if your variables have hyphens in them, you may see this error since hyphens are not allowed in variable names in Python and are used as subtraction operators.
Example:
my-variable = 5 # would result in 'SyntaxError: can't assign to operator'
