Using the Console in the Mozilla Development Network

When I have the Mozilla Development Network page open as Dave does in the Creating a Random Number (JavaScript Basics), I get a message about Google Analytics being blocked. I type in clear() and the message goes away. However, when I then type in math.random() and hit Enter as Dave does, I then get a message saying Reference error: math is not defined. It doesn't give me a random number. What am I doing wrong?
