title: python using variables from another file
body: <p>I'm new and trying to make a simple random sentence generator- 
  How can I pull a random item out of a list that is stored in another .py document? 
  I'm using   </p>
  
  <pre><code>random.choice(verb_list) 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>to pull from the list. How do I tell python that verb_list is in another document? </p>
  
  <p>Also it would be helpful to know what the principle behind the solution is called. I imagine it's something like 'file referencing' 'file bridging' etc.. </p>
