Could you explain a bit more what the game needs to do / maybe fill in the `random = 0` case as an example? I highly doubt you will need a different branch for each, but I don’t know that I understand what you’re going for 🙂

Hm, so you want to just pick a random multiplication problem from two values between 0 and 12, and multiply them together? as in have it splash `2x4` to start and then splash `8`?

I tried using the roulette thing on YouTube and used the 1-12 on two rows but now I’m trying to add in the answers

Oh, I thought you meant something like [https://makecode.com/\_cd2WtjLzPE76](https://makecode.com/_cd2WtjLzPE76) .
If you want to print out a multiplication table, you wouldn’t want it to be random; you can use loops (`for let index from 0 to 4`) from 0 to 12, and print each number. You would probably want to nest the loops, which can be a bit annoying in blocks, but you can use a function. I’ll make an example real quick, one sec

It was for my sister who couldn’t do multiplication well
It’s practice for her @LCProCODER
