import random

damage = random.randint(4, 7) # To get random num from {4,5,6,7}

You can do this using random.randrange:

random.randrange(4, 8)

You need to use 8 because in Python, the range is inclusive of the lower bound and exclusive of the upper bound.

You need range(4,8) because the upper bound is always -1. range(4,7) will give you 4,5,6

from random import choice
choice(range(4,8))

import random
print random.randint(4,7)

....

if you want floats then

print random.uniform(4,7)
