Steam game picker - Inori - 08-30-2015

Whenever I get really bored, I end up just staring at my Steam library not knowing what the hell to do. I fixed that problem with this little program.
What it does is go through your local Steam files for your installed games and chooses 3 at random.

Source:

Code:
from random import randint as r
from os import walk as f

games = next(f('C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common'))[1]
disp = [games[r(0,len(games))]]

def find_game():
	for i in range(0,3):
		c = games[r(0,len(games))]
		disp.append(c)
		games.pop(games.index(c))
		print "\t" + str(i+1) + ".",c.replace("_", " ")

print "Selected games: "

find_game()

Only bug: I occasionally get an IndexError, not totally sure why.

Anyway, enjoy your steam games Biggrin

On what line do you get an IndexError?

Code:
Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "steamPick.py", line 15 in <module>
        find_game()
    File "steamPick.py", line 9 in find_game
        c = games[r(0,len(games))]
IndexError: list index out of range

I guess it's on 9, when it's picking a game. I've tried using try/except to catch it, but it doesn't seem to work.

That's because randint uses the specified values inclusively Smile

So len(games) should be len(games)-1.
