I don't know whats wrong can you please help me.
import random
def even_odd(num):
start = 5
while start == True:
random.randint(1, 99)
start - 1
return not num % 2:
print("{} is even").format(num)
else:
print("{} is odd").format(num)
# If % 2 is 0, the number is even.
# Since 0 is falsey, we have to invert it with not.

216,136 PointsHere's a few hints:
- it looks like there's a few indentation errors
- since "start' contains a number, it will never be equal to "True"
- you can test "truthiness" of a number just by naming it
- just subtracting something ("-") doesn't save the result, but a subtracting assignment ("-=") does
- don't modify the provided "even_odd" function
- but use the function in the program
- you probably want an "if" to go with the "else"
