and so far my code look like this:

maya.cmds as cmds

import random

random.seed()

randVar = random.randrange(10000,20000) #create random number

print randVar

mesh = cmds.ls(sl=True)                #create a list of the mesh selected

print mesh

look on here for the split function

https://docs.python.org/2/library/string.html#string-functions


string concatenation is done with  +    so once you've split it at whatever separator you decide to use you can simply do this...

newstring = splitString[0] + random + splitString[1]
