   # it works like this
   # call the random function

   #print ' '
   from random import choice
   characters = ['👓', '👠', '🧨', '📣', '⚽', '🦺', '🏳‍🌈', '💍','👑','💻','🚬','🍗','🧵']
   #numbers = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,]
   #height = 1
   for x in range(3):
       print(choice(characters), end=)
   print('  ')

   #2nd
