i am stuck at Task 4. i can not figure out where is the mistake.
String[] facts= {};
Random randomGenerator = new Random(); int randomNumber = randomGenerator.nextInt (10); String Fact = facts[randomNumber];
String[] facts= {};
Random randomGenerator = new Random();
int randomNumber = randomGenerator.nextInt (10);
String Fact = facts[randomNumber];

Treehouse TeacherHi there! The last step of the challenge does not require an array nor does it ask for one. Line one and line 5 of your code can safely be removed. It is looking for you to create a plain old string variable just like:
String hello = "Hello World!";
It wants the number that you've generated named randomNumber to be converted to a string and then assigned to the variable intAsString. As of right now, that variable (intAsString) does not exist in your code. Note that you can convert an integer to a string through something called "type inferencing". We do this by concatenating an empty string with an integer. The result is that the integer becomes a string.
You can find a demonstration of this at around 3:15 of this video
Hope this helps!
