type error: ‘module’ object is not callable
Repl link:
couldnt tell what to put here unless if it wants me to link the game

import random

if random(1,2) == 1:
  print("test")

Hey @victorbaucum welcome to the forums!

There is an error in your code, here is the updated code →

import random

if random.randint(1,2) == 1:
  print("test")
else:
  print("test")

You were trying to get a random integer to do that you must use randint. Hope this helps!
