15,583 PointsWell it seems seeing only a single line, I expect that it gives errors. The errors will relate to the fact that the randomGenerator object is never instantiated. You immediatly declare and assign it to a value of something that does not exist ( at the moment).
The task from task 1 should be taken with it. Meaning that the code should include a declaration.
Random randomGenerator;
//the randomGenerator will need to get the methods
//that belongs to the Random object. You need it to make it a new instance somehow.
//Look at the task 1 text to see how it´s done ;p.
//Also if you want to know why, the nextInt belongs to the
//Random object. If it is not of this type, java won't accept it or
//recognize that it has these methods.
hope this helps !
