Cant make it work :(

Create a String variable named intAsString. Convert the randomNumber integer to a String value and store it in the intAsString variable. Hint: Add them together like in the video!

RandomTest.java 
Random randomGenerator = new Random ();
int randomNumber = randomGenerator.nextInt(10);

Hi Edwin,

String intAsString = String.valueOf(randomNumber);

Use the valueOf method from the String class
