import random

cont = 1
num = randint(1,10)

print("##### Guess game ####")

while cont < 6:

    try:
        guess = int(input("Enter a number between 1 to 10"))    

    except ValueError:
        print("Entre com um numero")

    cont = cont + 1

Hi there,

Thanks for the code.

I think you need to call randint on random like num = random.randint(1, 10)

Give that a go.

Steve.

No, same problem.

The error is in the first line :/

The error reporter is picking up on something in the random class being used wrongly - the error is within the usage of part of the random class. The error can sometimes appear really unhelpful! Clearly, there's nothing wrong with the random class itself as we haven't touched it!

I ran this code with no error:

import random

cont = 1
num = random.randint(1,10)

print("##### Guess game ####")

while cont < 6:

    try:
        guess = int(input("Enter a number between 1 to 10"))    

    except ValueError:
        print("Entre com um numero")

    cont = cont + 1

I'll try to post a screenshot of the code working - this may take a few attempts, though as I always get it wrong! Now visible - only two attempts at it!!

Might be worth saving your workspace and restarting it to see if that helps. Your code is working OK here, with that small amendment.

It's strange because when I ran this code It was running a function from another file. o.O
