frame=Tkinter.Frame()
frame.pack()

canvas =Tkinter.Canvas(frame,bg = 'white',width=200, height=400)
canvas.pack()

def generate():
for i in range(50):

x1=random.randrange(500)
y1=random.randrange(500)
x2=x1+5
y2= y1+5

canvas.create_oval(x1,y1,x2,y2,fill ="red")

canvas.create_oval(110,300,113,303,fill ="black") # inital point
button=Tkinter.Button(frame,fg="blue", text="GENERATE", activebackground='red',font=('verdana', 10, 'bold'),command=generate).pack(padx =50,side = LEFT)
#button2=Tkinter.Button(frame,fg ="blue",activebackground='red', text="RESET",font=('verdana', 10, 'bold'),command = circle).pack()

root = Tkinter.Tk()

# kick off the window's event loop
root.mainloop()

Please wrap your code in code tags.

i'm asking for help because just a novice to python

There's nothing wrong with asking for help and nothing wrong with being a novice. But when you ask for help, around here at least, it is expected you will wrap your code in code-tags as already explained. If nothing else, it increases the odds someone will look at it.

When I read your posting, beneath the initial dot, I see a right triangle. Why would you want to use create_oval() to generate a triangle? I suspect there's a good explanation -- but your posting doesn't seem to offer one.
