I need halp

import random
start = 5
def even_odd(num):
    while start:
        num = random.randint(1, 99)
        if num % 2 == 0:
            print("{} is even".format(num))
        else:
            print("{} is odd".format(num))
        start - 1
    # If % 2 is 0, the number is even.
    # Since 0 is falsey, we have to invert it with not.
    return not num % 2

def even_odd(num): return not num % 2

while start: num = random.randint(1, 99) if even_odd(num) == True: print("{} is even".format(num)) else: print("{} is odd".format(num)) start -= 1
