You can use this method on a Random object https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.random.next?view=net-8.0#system-random-next(system-int32-system-int32)

Random.Next Method (System)

Returns a random integer.

Random.Shared.Next() preferably

I did it like that:

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

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

You can do it like that, sure Or just

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

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

Is there any chance to convert the int to a string? Just realized you cant put both in an if statement

.ToString()

Ty, works good

just fyi that will get you 1-9 as the second parameter is exclusive if you actually want to get 10 as a possibility then you'd need Random.Shared.Next(1, 11);
