i`m having two problem right now.
1) Question dose not come out ramdom
2) After 10 ramdom question i also need to print our result.
(how many correct answer or wrong answer)

I try to use ramdom access file, it keep comes out with error.

if anybody good on JAVA please help me.

Thank you.

1. to generate random index, use public int nextInt(int n) method from java.util.Random, where n is number of questions.
2. introduce int varibles counters for correct and wrong answer. Check quest_no, and print results if is equal 10.
