alert("Welcome to the Random Number Generator!"); alert("Rule: Input two positive numbers, a lower number and a higher number. We will give you a random number between the given numbers.") var num1 = parseInt(prompt("First Number: ")); var num2 = parseInt(prompt("Second Number: "));

function randomNumber (x, y) { var userNum = Math.floor(Math.random() * (y - x + 1)) + x; return userNum; }
