How to do a random number?

I have a error trying to do the following code

Random r = new Random();
r.Next(10, 100);

But I have a error:

Error 1 'ChaseRP_Admin_Control.AdminCP2.Random' does not contain a definition for 'Next' and no extension method 'Next' accepting a first argument of type 'ChaseRP_Admin_Control.AdminCP2.Random' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

C:\Users\Someone\documents\visual studio 2013\Projects\ChaseRP Admin Control\ChaseRP Admin Control\AdminCP2\Random.cs 24 39 ChaseRP Admin Control

From the error, you have a class in your namespace ChaseRP_Admin_Control.AdminCP2 that has the name Random that doesn't have a Next() method. You can change the name of the class.

Alternatively, You can put the System namespace in front of the random to tell the compiler that you want the random from the system namespace not the one in your class.

System.Random r = new System.Random();

You have another class named Random in your assembly. It doesn't have a Next() method, like System.Random. You need to either change the name or specify System.Random explicitly, e.g.:

var r = new System.Random(); //look at the difference.
r.Next(10, 100);

ChaseRP_Admin_Control.AdminCP2.Random

You made your own Random class, which doesn't have a Next() method.
Either rename that class, or qualify the original one with its namespace (System.Random)
