you are first asked to create a new random generator using the Random() constructor:

Random randomGenerator;

randomGenerator = new Random();

Then you must declare an int variable named 'randomNumber' and, without setting a range, use the randomGenerator variable and its nextInt() method to get a random number.

int randomNumber = randomGenerator.nextInt();

that should help with the first part of the challenge. If you watch the video again and pay close attention you should be able to figure out the rest
