The formula to generate a random number between two values is the following:
Math.random() * (maximum - minimum) + minimum;
This will produce a result that is a floating point number between two values.
Create a variable called randomNum2 and assign it the result of generating a value between the min and max values.
Then, log the randomNum2 variable to see the result. Try refreshing the page to see different results.
You should have a variable called randomNum2.
assert.isNotNull(randomNum2);
Your randomNum2 variable should be a number.
assert.isNumber(randomNum2);
You should assign the result of generating a value between the min and max values. Make sure not to hardcode a value. You should use the formula provided above.
assert.isAtLeast(randomNum2, min);
assert.isAtMost(randomNum2, max);
assert.notMatch(code, /randomNum2\s*=\s*0\.\d+;?/);
// check for whole random numbers just in case a camper does this
assert.notMatch(code, /randomNum2\s*=\s*\d+;?/);
You should log the randomNum2 variable to the console.
assert.match(code, /console\.log\(\s*randomNum2\s*\);?/);
const botName = "MathBot";
const greeting = `Hi there! My name is ${botName} and I am here to teach you about the Math object!`;
console.log(greeting);
console.log("The Math.random() method returns a pseudo random number greater than or equal to 0 and less than 1.");
const randomNum = Math.random();
console.log(randomNum);
console.log("Now, generate a random number between two values.");
const min = 1;
const max = 100;
