It looks like you've made a module called 'random.py', which is
shadowing the standard library 'random' module. In that file, you
appear to have line numbers - note how line 42 is prefixed with the
actual number 42 - and that's causing syntax errors deep inside IDLE.
Try renaming or deleting your random.py to see if that fixes it.
