Even or Odd

It is telling me that task one is no longer passing.

even.py 
import random

start = 5

def even_odd(num):
    # If % 2 is 0, the number is even.
    # Since 0 is falsey, we have to invert it with not.
    return not num % 2

while start > 0:
    random.randint(1, 99)
    if even_odd(num) == True:
        print("{} is even".format(num))
    else:
        print("{} is odd".format(num))
    start -= 1

You're very close. All you need to do is put the random number into the variable num

while start > 0:
    num = random.randint(1, 99)
    if even_odd(num) == True:
        print("{} is even".format(num))
    else:
        print("{} is odd".format(num))
    start -= 1
