generate range and array in bash, pass it as a argument in python as list

foo.sh

#!/usr/bin/env bash

ran=$RANDOM
#rng=$(( $RANDOM % 1000 ));
#Better method to get the range:
rng=$(jot -r 1 10000 10001) #One numner between 10000 and 10001
LIST=""
for i in $(seq 1 $rng);
do
    num=$(( $RANDOM % 100 ));
    LIST+="$num"
    LIST+="*"
    #echo $num >> list.txt # That's how you'll put the cpu values inside txt
    ## Variable >> text.txt appends the values, one > Replaces previous values
done

LIST=$(sed 's/*/ /g' <<< $LIST)

# start cpu measurement
EXTIME=$(time python3 up.py -l $LIST)
#stop cpu measurement

echo $EXTIME >> list.txt

list.txt
