There are thousands of facts built in.
Installation

Examples

import randfacts fact = randfacts.get_fact() print(fact) filtered_fact = randfacts.get_fact(filter_enabled=False) print(filtered_fact)

If you want to access the list of facts directly, you can just import the safe_facts
, unsafe_facts
, or all_facts
lists from the randfacts module.
