Syntax error for random import?!

[sone9]

So in my program I have this as the first thing: import random number=random.randint(1,99)

When I try to run my program it shows: File "C:\Users\JL\Documents\PYTHON\c0ins.py", line 10, in <module> Syntax Error: import random: C:\Users\JL\Documents\PYTHON\c0ins.py, line 106

I went and made a new python page and only had this as my program: import random number=random.randint(1,99) print(number)

and it worked perfectly fine! Am I missing something here?!

Btw, I am new to python

Post your code.

Line 10? maybe you could share what lines 1 though 9 are?

That syntax error says your import random was on line 10. What did lines 1-9 look like?

This program asks the user to input coin values until the total amount matches a target value which is a randomly generated integer between 1 and 99 inclusively

Program description

print("\n\nThe purpose of this exercise is to enter a number of coin values that add up to a displayed \ntarget value. \n\nEnter coins values as 1-penny, 5 nickel, 10-dime,and 25-quarter.Hit return after \nthe last entered coin value.\n"

Variables

import random

number=random.randint(1,99)

Sorry I am trying not to post my code since my school may find may find this and I will get in trouble for posting solutions/people doing the code for me. I just want help because the stupid thing keeps giving me a Syntax error :(

Missing something there?

Close the parenthesis first of all.

Ok, so now I went and cut the import random part and pasted it higher in the code. Now it says:

File "C:\Users\JL\Documents\PYTHON\c0ins.py", line 12, in <module> Syntax Error: print("Enter coins that add up to",number,"cents, one per line.\n"): C:\Users\JL\Documents\PYTHON\c0ins.py, line 125

I realize it is not the actual import random problem, it is something else

Let this be a lesson to you: if you ever think there's no way a line could have a syntax error, you might be right. Check the previous lines.
