Im trying to make a guessing game in python where the computer generates a random number and the user has to guess it. To generate a random number i used the randint function from the random module yet i get this error message. ImportError: cannot import name ‘index’ from ‘operator’

This usually happens the you have a file in your search path with the same name of a file in the standard library ..In this case, you likely have an operator.py file lying around which shadows the stdlib’s own operator module.
That said, there is no need to use operator.index in learning purpose-code – it is meant mostly for completion of a “non douple underscore syntax” to reach all possible operations in Python, and would only be useful in an app built with somewhat refined architecture, and eager to preserve semantics.
You probably just want int instead of operator.index.
Either way, rename your operator.py file to some other name.
