337 PointsStuck at challenge task 4 of 4!
I'm still a bit unclear of the purpose of declaring a string named intAsString,as well as how to go about it.
I am a bit loss as to the definition of "variable" and "class", as well as their purpose in Java codings.

42,016 Pointsyou can declare a string like so:
String someString = "some string";
however in your case you need to convert the integer variable you created previously (randomNumber) to a string using the toString method of the Integer class (it takes an integer as an argument). since its a class method you call it like this (Note: the following code is just an example, you will have to make a few changes to make it work for your challenge)
int myInt = 10;
String someString = Integer.toString(myInt);
