To the future!🚀

Beginner Hint 1 (AI-translated)

Press 1 to print a random number.
Press 2 to challenge yourself to predict the next random number that will be printed.
Can you find a way to foresee future random outputs?

Beginner Hint 2 (AI-translated)

Python's Random.random is not cryptographically secure.
If you can observe enough outputs from the same generator, you may be able to predict its future outputs.
You can also find public tools on GitHub and elsewhere for predicting these outputs.
