    Default Im having difficulty with this problem, can someone please help?

    Dice are used in many games. One die can be thrown to randomly show a value from 1
    through 6.Design a Die class that can hold an integer data field for a value (from1 to 6).
    Include a constructor that randomly assigns a value to a die object. Appendix D
    contains information on generating randomnumbers. To fully understand the process,
    you must learn more about Java classes and methods. However, for now, you can copy
    the following statement to generate a random number between 1 and 6 and assign it to
    a variable. Using this statement assumes you have assigned appropriate values to the
    static constants.
    randomValue = ((int)(Math.random() * 100) % HIGHEST_DIE_VALUE +
    LOWEST_DIE_VALUE);
    Also include a method in the class to return a die’s value. Save the class as
    Die.java.
    Write an application that randomly “throws” two dice and displays their values.
    After you read the chapter Making Decisions, you will be able to have the game
    determine the higher die. For now, just observe how the values change as you
    execute the program multiple times. Save the application as TwoDice.java.
