Trying to make a simple random number generator [closed]

Question

I am new to python and I am just trying to do simple random number generator function but python just gives me an error every time. Could anyone help with this?

def roll_dice(num):

    return random.randint(1, num)

roll_dice(6)

Error Message:

NameError: name 'random' is not defined

Answer 1

Although random comes with the python itself (you don't need to install it)

But to use it you need to import it

import random # you need to import random

def roll_dice(num):

    return random.randint(1, num)

roll_dice(6)

Import means: The Python code in one of the module gains access to the code in another module by the process of importing it.
