I have 6 errors in my code. I cant see them in the code

I get error but I can't figure out where they are. I'm using some things that I've never used before though. Help? File: Egen.cs https://w.trhou.se/s2gmgfowsi

Only the first error listed is is significant. And sometimes you need to look at the line before the one mentioned by the error message to see the real issue.

In this case, you are missing the semicolon at the end of line 8.

Fixing that will reveal some other errors, but hopefully you can take it from there.

Steven, I did as you said and I got some errors after it and I fixed them all, except one. It's the one with the new "function" I wanted to try out! I wanted a random number so I searched it up and then wrote this into my Egen.cs file:

Random random = new Random();
int randomNumber = random.Next(1,10);

My errors are: error CS0246: The type or namespace name Random' could not be found. Are you missingSystem' using directive?

It's hinting for you to add a "using System;" directive to the top of your file, if you don't have one already.

If that's not it, create a new question (with a fresh snapshot).
