 // It will help to think about the order in which expressions are evaluated

+//Answers
+// num is a constant variable that stores a random integer between the minimum and maximum values (inclusive), generated using Math.random() and Math.floor()
+
+
+
+// Math.random()
+// This expression gives you a random decimal number between 0 and 1.
+// It could be something like 0.25 or 0.879, but it will never reach 1.
+
+// (maximum - minimum + 1)
+// This expression calculates how many numbers are in the range you want.
+// For example, if your range is 1 to 100, the result is 100 because there are 100 possible values.
+
+// Math.random() * (maximum - minimum + 1)
+// This expression multiplies the random decimal by your range.
+
+
+// Math.floor(...)
+// This expression rounds the number down to the nearest integer.
+// For example, 37.6 becomes 37, and 99.9 becomes 99.
+
+// + minimum
+// Variable minimum is added to the expression "Math.floor(Math.random() * (maximum - minimum + 1))" and the the value is stored inside the variable num
