using math object 1

[tnbrwneyez]

I need to take the following code and create a variable named num and assign its value a random integer between 0 and 9> I need to use the Math object's round ()and random () methods in tandem to accomplish this task. The random number must be multiplied by 9. I need to use the round () method to round that number to the nearest integer.

You seem to know exactly how to do this already. In case you don't, call functions of the Math object throught Math.functionName().

What do I need to put where? Sorry, but JavaScript is not by strong point.

Thanks

var num = Math.floor(Math.random()*9)

Math.floor rounds down, Math.round() rouns down for <5, up for >=5.
