All Fruits make one word?

Question

I am using Notepad ++ to try this myself, but the secret word is a run on of all the fruits put together.  Is it because the import of the random feature isn't working?  Also, How can I post a picture of my code in the question box?

Thanks for the tip!  Not only does it print all the fruits together as the chosen word every time, it prints the strikes: 0/7 exactly 7 times as well.

I'd have to see your code to comment on the first question, but to post your code just cut-and-paste it inside a blockquote.  To do that, skip a blank line, the put a line with only 3 accents and your language id (like: ```py), then your code, then a line with just 3 accents.
Even better, make a snapshot (https://teamtreehouse.com/library/previews-and-snapshots) of your workspace and post the link to it here.
