This is not specific to the random module, try: time.py: ---------------- import time print time.time() ---------------- Don't name your script 'random.py' (or any other name from the stdlib). 'import random' will import the script itself (not the random module from the stdlib), which is not what you want. -- Benjamin Niemann Email: pink at odahoda dot de WWW: http://pink.odahoda.de/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
