You call that russian roulette? This is real russian roulette. Dying is a 1/6 probability.

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import random

barrel = [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1]
random.shuffle(barrel)

print("Russian Roulette")
for i in barrel:
  input("Press enter to shoot")
  if i == 1:
    print("You are dead.")
    exit()
  else:
    print("Phew. You survived.")

You can ~~quit~~ control-c at any point. Sometimes, the game plays you.

I always use i because I'm too lazy to type out iterator when I'm making my garbage spaghetti code that will support infrastructure for years

I like it, i for int easy to remember. I also use i, j, k as u it vectors and remember at what depth of a multidimentional array in working at.

You forgot the switch.
