Code Challenge: Objects and Random Numbers

I cant seem to figure this one out...can anyone please help?

The Question Reads:

Declare a String variable named intAsString. Convert the randomNumber integer to a String value and store it in the intAsString variable. Hint: Use the toString() method of the Integer class.

Below is what I had done correctly up until the 4th objective above.

Random randomGenerator = new Random();
int randomNumber = randomGenerator.nextInt(10);
answer = Integer.toString(randomNumber);

Sorry about your trouble! You have the right side of the last statement correct, but check what you have on the left side of the equals sign, and then re-read the first sentence of the task. :-)

@ Ryan - It was the Build a Android App

@ Ben - Thanks for trying to help...still not getting it and I must have tried all possible variations except for the right one :S

Going bat crap crazy....

Sorry - I thought my last tip would be enough! You're assigning to answer on the left side of the last line, which isn't a valid variable name. You need to assign to a new String variable named "intAsString": String intAsString = ....

You guys are awesome !!!
