My code output is broken

import random XYZ = ["yes", "no", "try again", "im confused", "forgetaboutit", "when pigs fly", "your luck would be better spent on a lotto ticket"] print(random.sample(XYZ, 1)) that is my code. why is that out put always inside of [' '] ? the code in the playground: https://code.sololearn.com/cfrVU5beJ4S7/?ref=app

This is exactly what it's suposed to do though. sample returns a new list. So, you're just printing a different list. For example, If you wrote: print(XYZ); It would still have those brackets. The brackets are just showing what is inside the list, which is shown when you print a list.
