The spelling of variable names isn't important (except to readability) as long as you use the same name consistently throughout the program. But you created a variable named "randomnNumberA" (with an extra "n"), but later referred to it as "randomNumberA".

Also, it's important to use quote marks in pairs of the same type. In the "alert" call on the last line, there is a mix of apostrophes (') and double quotes (").

If you start with the first challenge, you'll create a random number very similar to what was done in the Create a random number video, and you can use that code as a model. For the "even further" challenge, you'll apply a slightly different formula to create a random number within a range, which you can find on this MDN page under Getting a random integer between two values, inclusive. But in both cases, you'll probably want to ask the user for number(s) from a wider range than just 0 to 1.
