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.
what is wrong? ```Random randomGenerator = new Random(); int randomNumber = randomGenerator. nextInt(10); answer = Integer. toString(randomNumber);

4,125 PointsHello,
In this code you have a space between Integer. and toString. Try removing that space.
You have:
answer = Integer. toString(randomNumber);
You want this:
answer = Integer.toString(randomNumber);
Hope this helps, if not let me know.
Paul :)

Courses Plus Student 94,610 PointsSorry, there's more errors than initially thought.
You also have a space after randomGenerator. It was hard to tell from original post because that's where the line break occurred.
Also, your last line of code doesn't match up with the directions for task 4. It's saying, Declare a String variable named intAsString
Paul Stevens
4,125 PointsOk, I also notice that is asking you to store the result in the "intAsString" variable, at the moment this code is storing it in the variable "answer"
You have:
answer= Integer.toString(randomNumber);
Try this instead:
intAsString = Integer.toString(randomNumber);
Paul :)

Jason Anello
Courses Plus Student 94,610 PointsYou didn't declare it as a String type.
Paul Stevens
4,125 PointsTry this
Random randomGenerator = new Random();
int randomNumber = randomGenerator.nextInt(10);
String intAsString; //declare the variable
intAsString = Integer.toString(randomNumber); //assign the value to the string

Paul Stevens
4,125 PointsOr you maybe can combine the lines to this:
String intAsString = Integer.toString(randomNumber);

String intAsString = Integer.toString(randomNumber);
