🔒 how to make a different randon number every time?

[waxen plover]

i'm making a beg command for a current system for my bot, but every time i run the $beg command, it always returns the same number

code:
begamt = random.randint(10, 300) @client.command() async def beg(ctx): await ctx.reply("" + str(ctx.author.mention) + " begged and received $" + str(begamt))

put the begamt = random.randint() inside your function

alr lemme try tat

[dusty steeple]

Make it so each time you call it it randint()s again

also an fstring would look nicer here

[modern topaz]

yup

[waxen plover]

smth like this?

[dusty steeple]

No

[waxen plover]

srry im kinda new

[dusty steeple]

use fstring's ability to directly slot variables into it, like

!e

num = 10
print(f'I have a number: {num}')

@dusty steeple :white_check_mark: Your 3.12 eval job has completed with return code 0.

I have a number: 10

[glossy haven]

you didn't put the randint into the function there

[frosty locust]

inside your function... your function begins at the "async def" line.. so it needs to be after that, and indented

[modern topaz]

maybe, if you cannot use basic concepts lijke function, you should improve it before doing such elaborated things like discord bot

[glossy haven]

@client.command()
async def beg(ctx):
  begamt = random.randint(10, 300)
  await ctx.reply(f"{ctx.author.mention} begged and received ${begamt}")
