[Tutor] Random Number Game: Returns always the same number - why?

[John R Jones]

You need to move this line:

Random_Number = random.randint(1, 100)

into the loop body, like this:


while Count <= 100:
     Random_Number = random.randint(1, 100)
     print (Random_Number)
     Count = Count + 1

 Hope this helps.
