Python randomising multiple choices in python

Question

What I try to do is randomise the question1 to question20 in different order and when it's randomise I can also type my answer in the question. Every time I try to use the randomise statement it's always stuff up with error or intend error. what the code do now is print the question in order. all I have to do is randomise the question with the if and elif statement together

{py}

name = raw_input("Hello what is your name? ")

    print "Excelent! The test will start in any second. "
if ready.lower() == "no":
    print "Okay, tell me when you're ready. "
elif ready.lower() != "yes" and "no":
    print "It okay if your're not sure. The test can start in any time you want. "

I suggest you use a dictionary to do this, the format being {question number: [answer, question], ...}: q_and_a = {1: ['a', 'What is k?'], 2: ['b', 'What is c?'], ...}.

Then you can create a list of the keys from this, and shuffle the list.

import random
q_and_a = {1: ['a', 'What is k?'], 2: ['b', 'What is c?'], ...}
questions = q_and_a.keys()
random.shuffle(questions)
for i in questions:
    my_msg = "\nQuestion " + str(i) + q_and_a[i][1] + "\nA\nB\C\nD"# gets the question
    answer = raw_input(my_msg)
    while answer != q_and_a[i][0]:
        print('Incorrect! Try again!')
        answer = raw_input(my_msg)

from random import sample
d = {1: 'question A', 2: 'question B', 3: 'question C', 4: 'question D',
    5: 'question E', 6: 'question F', 7: 'question G'}
for result in [d.get(x, 'unknown') for x in sample(range(1,len(d)+1),len(d))]:
print result
