Ok thanks for that help got it workin now but have a question?

here is my code:

import javax.swing.JOptionPane;

public class Random{

/**Main Method*/
public static void main (String[] args) {

//Declare and intialize variables
int num1 = (int)(Math.random()*11);
int num2 = (int)(Math.random()*11);
int sum = 0;
sum = num1 * num2;
int userGuess;

//Get user input
String guessString = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,"What is " + num1 + "*" + num2 + "?","Project 3",JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE);

//Convert user input into a int
userGuess = Integer.parseInt(guessString);

//Invoke the checkResult method to check students answer against computers answer
checkResult(userGuess, sum);

}
//Check students answer with checkResult method
public static void checkResult(int studentAnswer, int correctAnswer){
if(studentAnswer == correctAnswer)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Very Good!","Project 3",JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);

else
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"That was incorrect. Try Again","Project 3",JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
}
