Hi Eric Flamm,
I'm presently in communication with the author, and you'll soon notice the update appearing on the Learn path.
Hi Eric Flamm
Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A forum.
The statement "This code is just 'one possible solution" The fortune teller randomly selects one of the arrays (good, bad, or neutral) based on the luck value, which is generated randomly between 0 and 99 at the beginning of the program.
The fortune-telling program will continue to generate two fortune messages based on a random luck variable, each message comprising elements from a text array and one of the arrays (good, bad, or neutral) determined by the luck value. Consequently, despite these minor discrepancies in code formatting, the program will consistently deliver two fortune messages as outlined in the comments preceding the code snippet.
Please attempt the code again, if you need more information, kindly provide the screenshot of the output and we'll be happy to offer further assistance.

This answer is wrong, and does not address the issue I raised. The problem was to generate 1 fortune - the "possible solution" generates more than 1. More than 1 is not 1, so it is NOT a possible solution - it is a solution for a different problem ("generate 2 fortunes for the player, so that they will be thoroughly confused" would be a reasonable problem statement for this so-called solution). Specifically, there should NOT be 2 calls to the "TellFortune" method in the example solution.
