I am currently trying to create a program to generate random one time use keys for fun, and am currently writing the code to generate random indices. However, I keep getting this error when trying to test it out.
Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\Users\Nolan\Downloads\myrandom.py.py", line 22, in <module> minute_index=rd.randint(0,5) File "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.13_3.13.2544.0_x64__qbz5n2kfra8p0\Lib\random.py", line 340, in randint return self.randrange(a, b+1) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^^^^^^^^ File "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.13_3.13.2544.0_x64__qbz5n2kfra8p0\Lib\random.py", line 318, in randrange istep = _index(step)Below is the actual program.
