@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
// Assign the views from the layout file to the corresponding variables
    factTextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.factTextView);
    factButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.factButton);

    View.OnClickListener listener = new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            // the button was clicked , so update the fact TextView with a new fact
            //randomly select a fact
            Random randomGenerator = new Random();
            int randomGenerator = randomGenerator.nextInt( n: 3);
            String fact ="";

            //update the screen with our new fact
            factTextView.setText(fact);
        }
    };
    factButton.setOnClickListener(listener);
}

You int variable has the same name and your int variable name should be randomNumber; just change this: int randomNumber = randomGenerator.nextInt(n: 3)

I hope this solve your bug!
