It's telling you that "rand" is an int. Since it didn't start off
like that, I suspect you have assigned to rand somewhere.
Have a look through your code; are there any lines starting with:
rand =
?
Also, in my opinion, it's a bad idea to rename standard library
functions like that. If another python programmer looked at your
code, they would probably be familiar with randint and understand what
it does, but they won't know exactly what "rand" does without looking
through the rest of your code.
