Welcome! This tutorial will help you create a guess the number game! Let's get started!

~

To create a new script, go to the Create Code page and tap New Project under Touch Develop.

Add an event handler when button A is pressed.

input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, () => {
})

Create a local variable of type number x and set it to a random number using math->random. math->random(10) generates a random number between 0 and 10 excluded.

input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, () => {
    let x = Math.random(10)
})

Show the random number on the screen.

input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, () => {
    let x1 = Math.random(10)
    basic.showNumber(x1, 150)
})
