```javascript
|
||||
var randomNumberBetween0and19 = Math.floor(Math.random() * 20);
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
function randomWholeNum() {
|
||||
|
||||
// Only change code below this line.
|
||||
Math.floor(Math.random() * 10);
|
||||
return Math.floor(Math.random());
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
We need to use ```Math.floor()``` with ```Math.random()``` to generate and return a random whole number between 0 and 9.
|
||||
Putting ```Math.floor()``` and ```Math.random()``` together, this is what our code looks like:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
Math.floor(Math.random() * 10);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And we need change the value of ```return```:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
return Math.floor(Math.random());
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Here’s a full solution:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
var randomNumberBetween0and19 = Math.floor(Math.random() * 20);
|
||||
|
||||
function randomWholeNum() {
|
||||
|
||||
// Only change code below this line.
|
||||
Math.floor(Math.random() * 10);
|
||||
return Math.floor(Math.random());
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
