getting It looks like Task 1 is no longer passing message. even.py

Question

import random
 start = 5
def even_odd(num):
    # If % 2 is 0, the number is even.
    # Since 0 is falsey, we have to invert it with not.
    return not num % 2
while True:
    number = random.randint(1, 99)
    if (1, 99) == % 2:
        print("{} is even")
    else:
        print("{} is odd")
    finally: start -= 1
```even.py
import random
 start = 5
def even_odd(num):
    # If % 2 is 0, the number is even.
    # Since 0 is falsey, we have to invert it with not.
    return not num % 2
while True:
    number = random.randint(1, 99)
    if (1, 99) == % 2:
        print("{} is even")
    else:
        print("{} is odd")
    finally: start -= 1
        It looks like Task 1 is no longer passing.

There are quite a few obvious errors in your sample.
start = 5 must not be indented. Accurate indents is important in Python
if (1, 99) == % 2: should probably be if even_odd(number):
finally: start -= 1 should be just start -= 1
