Hi I have problem with this code. It is game MasterMind. If guess number, program return problem.

Traceback (most recent call last): File "mastermind.py", line 47, in <module> random = random.randint(1,11). AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'randint'

Thanks for all help.

This is pretty simply: The line random = random.randint(1,11) turns random into a variable integer as opposed to a reference to the module called random. Rename your variable to random_int = random.randint(1,11) or something. — niko

@niko, it's usually always simple to those answering the question, not necessarily so for those asking it :-) — paxdiablo

@paxdiablo You are right (that being said it was not meant with a negative connotation in any form or shape) — niko

random = random.randint(1,11)

This statement rebinds the random name, which currently refers to the imported module (it was set when you did import random), to an integer returned from randint(). The next time you execute this statement, random will no longer be the module, it will be an integer.

That's why it's complaining about trying to access a non-existent attribute of an int object.

The following transcript shows what's happening:

>>> import random
>>> type(random)
<class 'module'>

>>> random = random.randint(1,7)
>>> type(random)
<class 'int'>

>>> random = random.randint(1,7)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'randint'

To fix, simply use a different name for the random value, such as randNum, so that random continues to be bound to the module.

You can not use random as a variable name since that is a module you are using, simply change the variable name and it should fix the issue.

Here I changed it to random_int instead and it works just fine.

import random

print("""
___  ___          _           ___  ____           _
|  \/  |         | |          |  \/  (_)         | |
| .  . | __ _ ___| |_ ___ _ __| .  . |_ _ __   __| |
| |\/| |/ _` / __| __/ _ \ '__| |\/| | | '_ \ / _` |
| |  | | (_| \__ \ ||  __/ |  | |  | | | | | | (_| |
\_|  |_/\__,_|___/\__\___|_|  \_|  |_/_|_| |_|\__,_|

                                                    """)

meno = input("""
    Ahoj nový hráč.
    Pre pokračovanie zadaj svoje meno: """)

print("""
    Ahoj {}
    Pravidlá sú následovné. ja si myslím číslo a ty budeš hádať.
    Ak chceš ukončiť hru, napíš 'KONIEC'.
    Na konci hry uvidíš svoje skóre.""".format(meno))

print("\nMyslím si číslo")

random_int = random.randint(1,11)
guess = -1
good = 0
bad = 0
alltry = 0
while True:
    guess = input("Tvoj typ: ").strip().lower()
    alltry += 1
    if guess == "koniec":
        alltry -= 1
        print("\n+{:=^30}+".format("KONIEC"))
        print("|{:^15}|{:^14}|".format("Správne", good))
        print("|{:^15}|{:^14}|".format("Nesprávne", bad))
        print("|{:^15}|{:^14}|".format("Spolu", alltry))
        print("+{:=^30}+".format(""))
        print("\nĎakujem za hru {}\n".format(meno))
        break
    if guess == "":
        print("NEZADAL SI CISLO!")
    elif int(guess) == random_int:
        good += 1
        print("Máš to!!!")
        random_int = random.randint(1,11)
        guess = -1
    elif int(guess) < 1 or int(guess) > 10:
        print("ZADÁVAJ ČÍSLA IBA Z INTERVALU OD 1 PO 10!")
    elif guess != random_int:
        print("NESPRÁVNE!\nHádaj znovu.")
        guess = -1
        bad += 1
