I was receiving the error "NameError: name 'random' is not defined" after using "random.randrange(...)"

Answer 1

make sure to include

import random

at the top of your code

Thank you!

Answer 2

You need to import random
You can't use built in functions without importing it

Thank you!

Answer 3

Yes you need to import it before using it

import random

just like with math too

thank you!

Answer 4

The reason I was receiving the error was because I forgot to do "import random" before doing "random.randrange(...)". Hence the error saying 'random' is not defined.

Answer 5

Hi,
I think you forgot to put "import random" at the top of the code like even before def main().

Thank you and i know most of them answered the same thing! So, ya! hehe.

Have a good day!
