937 PointsHelp! I can't make my code work.
Make a while loop that runs until start is falsey. Inside the loop, use random.randint(1, 99) to get a random number between 1 and 99. If that random number is even (use even_odd to find out), print "{} is even", putting the random number in the hole. Otherwise, print "{} is odd", again using the random number. Finally, decrement start by 1.
I got the comment that Task 1, which is "import random" is not working. I am not sure what's wrong here.
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:
n_num = random.randit(1,99)
if even_odd(n_num):
print("{} is even".format(n_num))
else:
print("{} is odd".format(n_num))
start -= 1

You just have a small typo. You missed the second "n" in "randint"

You have a typo, randit should be randint.
