Related Links:

Write a function named random_over that accepts two integer parameters n and max and repeatedly prints random numbers between 0 and max (inclusive) until a number greater than or equal to n is printed. At least one line of output should always be printed, even if the first random number is above n. Here is a sample log from the call of random_over(900, 1000) 

Random number: 235
Random number: 15
Random number: 810
Random number: 147
Random number: 915

(Because this problem uses random numbers, our test cases check only the general format of your output. You must still examine the output yourself to make sure the answer is correct.)

Function: Write a Python function as described, not a complete program.
