The new python 3.13 REPL looks so useful that I might be able to switch from IPython to it entirely!

🎲 Do you like Python's little CLIs? For example:

$ python -m http.server
$ python -m webbrowser example_url
$ python -m uuid
$ python -m calendar

What about adding one to random?

$ python -m random curry "fish n chips" tacos
curry

$ python -m random 6
6

$ python -m random 2.5
1.6423361547011504

Give your feedback on my proposal at
https://discuss.python.org/t/command-line-interface-for-the-random-module/51304

If there's support we might be able to get it into 3.13 before May's beta cutoff! 🤞

@pythonbytes I'm just in the process of catching up with my backlog and in number 378 you talked a bit about time.monotonic.

At EuroPython 2021 I gave a quick lightning talk of its behaviour vs time.perf_counter and found some fun resolution and performance differences on windows.

tldr: if you are platform agnostic/target windows and need a very high clock resolution, look at time.perf_counter instead.
