It's not working on Pyscripter. Is it not designed for that?

anonymous · Answer

Never used pyscripter but random is a built in module for python and should work. Are you on Windows or Linux?

anonymous · Answer

Yeah, this should work regardless of your IDE (although the upper value is not included).

I'm using windows.

anonymous · Answer

Thanks, that worked.

If you are on windows, open up your notepad and then paste the following code into notepad.

from random import randint
x = randint(1,10)
print("Random value below")
print(x)
print "Press enter key to continue"
a=raw_input()

Save the file as test.py

After saving the file as test.py you can double click on it and should work
