my code will not exicute the if/ elif part in this : so When I run this code(a portion of it) and I get to the word = input, it will run that and let me input my answer. But instead of doing the if / elif code, it will say exit code 0. I do not understand why this is happening so please help. I tried to remove code here and there but it changed nothing.

    rand1 = random.randint(1, 2)
    rand2 = random.randint(1, 4)
    rand = random.randint(1, 1)
    word = input("use a word that is 1-10 letters on a space, type a number 1 -    100 for the space: ")
    if rand == "1":
        print("randomly generating")
    elif rand1 == "1":
        a1 = word[0]
        a2 = word[1]
        a3 = word[2]
        a4 = word[3]
        a5 = word[4]
        a6 = word[5]
        a7 = word[6]
        a8 = word[7]
        a9 = word[8]
        a10 = word[9]
        letters()
this is just a portion as the entire code is too long to post in here
