Where the 'guess' get the guess?

How the 'guess'/computer get the number to the guess? We can see on the text editor, the 'guess' is empty. And it must guess the number that will be out on the randomNumber function.

Is the computer get have the number itself on this device, or it get number from the random on the system, or javascript that make it happen.

Please explain me about what I asking. Don't explain too much. Thanks...

Hi Fuad, without explaining too much, the guess variable is set in the while loop by obtaining a value from the getRandomNumber() function.

while ( guess !== randomNumber ) {
    guess = getRandomNumber( upper );
}
