random.choice(list)

#2.Multiple elements with replacement
random.choices(list, k = 4)

#3.Multiple elements without replacement
random.sample(list, 4)

Example 2: place a number randomly in a list python

offsetBiasSample = [randint(-10,10)/100 for i in range(10)]
offsetBias = choice(offsetBiasSample)
index_offsetBias = randint(0,len(oldBiases)-1)
oldBiases[index_offsetBias] = oldBiases[index_offsetBias] + offsetBias
