Hwere is the complete traceback ! >>> The word is:  index

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "F:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\pythonwin\pywin\framework

    distributions on the real line:
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'randrange'
>>>
Why  would it say  it can't find the function ?
