Certainly! Below is a Python program that accomplishes counting from 1000 to a random number in random intervals. This program uses the `random` module to generate the random target number and the random intervals. ```python import random import time def count_randomly(): # Set the start point start = 1000 # Generate a random target number greater than 1000 end = random.randint(1001, 2000) # Random target is between 1001 and 2000 # Print the target number print(f"Counting from {start} to {end}:") # Current number starts from 1000 current = start # Continue until the current number is greater than or equal to the target number while current < end: # Step is a random number between 1 and 50 step = random.randint(1, 50) # Ensure we don't exceed the target number current += step if current > end: current = end # Print the current number print(current) # Sleep for a brief period to simulate delay time.sleep(0.2) # Run the counting function count_randomly() ``` Explanation: 1. **Imports**: The `random` module is used to generate random numbers, and `time` module is used to introduce a delay. 2. **Initialization**: - The program starts counting from 1000. - It selects a random target number that is greater than 1000. In this example, I've picked the upper random limit as 2000. 3. **Counting Loop**: - The loop continues to add a random interval (between 1 and 50) to the current count until it meets or exceeds the target number. - Each count is printed and program sleeps for 0.2 seconds to slow down the output for readability. 4. **Completion**: - The loop ensures that it does not overshoot the target number by adjusting the current value to the target number when necessary. You can execute this script in any Python environment. Feel free to adjust the range of the target number or the random step intervals according to your preferences.

import random start = 1000 end = random.randint(1001, 9999) for x in range(start, end+1, random.randint(1,50)): print(x)
