Tell us what’s happening:

Test case #7 does not recognize the randomNumber.

Is there something I am doing wrong?

Your code so far

const fortune1 = "Your cat will look very cuddly today.";
const fortune2 = "The weather will be nice tomorrow.";
const fortune3 = "Be cautious of your new neighbors.";
const fortune4 = "You will find a new hobby soon.";
const fortune5 = "It would be wise to avoid the color red today.";

const min = 1;
const max = 5;

const randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min);

let selectedFortune;

if(randomNumber === 1){
  selectedFortune = fortune1;
}

else if(randomNumber === 2) {
  selectedFortune = fortune2;
}

else if(randomNumber === 3) {
  selectedFortune = fortune3;
}

else if(randomNumber === 4) {
  selectedFortune = fortune4;
}

else {
  selectedFortune = fortune5;
}

console.log(selectedFortune);

7. You should generate a random number between 1 and 5, inclusive, and assign it to the variable randomNumber.

Hi @neahpanilag

To help you debug, add the following console log:

console.log(Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min), Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min), Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min), Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min), Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min), Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min), Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min),Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min), Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min), Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min), Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min), Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min), Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min));

Happy coding

Another strict evaluation yet it seems.

Math.floor(Math.random() * 5) + 1; fixes it but has literally the same effect as my code.

const min = 1;

const max = 5;

const randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min) + min);

Both vars are defined.

What can you say about the list of numbers generated by the console log?
