I can't use kotlin.random.Random ... what's up with that?

“Can’t use” is a little bit unspecific. What exactly is happening?

[Barend]

I'm trying to use it like this:

import android.graphics.Color
import kotlin.random.Random

private val randomInt = { Random.nextInt(256) }

internal fun getRandomColor(): Int {
    val r = randomInt()
    val g = randomInt()
    val b = randomInt()

    return Color.rgb(r, g, b)
}

but Gradle gives an error: Unresolved reference random and Unresolved reference Random.

Do you have proper stdlib version in dependencies? Check in the Gradle window.

It was set to '1.2.71' 😅, setting it to '1.3.0' worked

Now I've got some other issues to dig in to
