I'm doing the random number challenge but not sure what's wrong with the code

// Collect input from a user let userNum = alert("Please enter a number")

// Convert the input to a number
let convertUserNum = parseInt(userNum, 10);

// Use Math.random() and the user's number to generate a random number
let randomNum = Math.random(convertUserNum);

// Create a message displaying the random number
console.log(`${randomNum} is a random number between ${convertUserNum} and ${userNum}`);

Hello Kevin,

userNum is not initialized. You need let userNum = 2 or some other number.
