i know am close but am stuck
# EXAMPLE
# random_item("Treehouse")
# The randomly selected number is 4.
# The return value would be "h"

Just a little more.
Just two mistakes:
-
Why are you surrounding
table
in quotes? Istable
a string? -
Why are you returning
random_number = ["table"]
? You only need to returntable
.
I hope this helps! ~Alex
