Python support for randomly selecting blocks of text from various files.

I have several files which contain a list of questions to be compiled in Latex. I want to write a Python script that does the following.

I want to choose a set number of questions randomly from each file and save them to a new file exam1.tex. For example, I want to be able to select 10 random questions from bank1 and 20 random questions from bank2, etc.

I will share some examples of files with shortlisted candidates.

Notes:
Each question is wrapped in an environment.
The following environments are used:

\\begin{ question}
[...]
\\end{ question}

\\begin{ matching}
[...]
\\end{ matching}

However, some questions are joined together into groups in the following manner:

\\begin{ block} [questions=2]
\\begin{ question}
[...]
\\end{ question}

\\begin{ question}
[...]
\\end{ question}
\\end{ block}

Ideally, Id like to keep grouped questions together. So, if one grouped question gets randomly selected, the entire group of questions gets included.
