(I'm having some hard time for days to manage to chose a random item
from teh database and to be able to pass it further.)

It is basic operation and i tried several ways all,  brought me to the
same problem,  params {"id" = "random"} <- the name of the controller
method

controller:

def random   # method works  checked it in the console. Returns a valid
obj.
      @task = Task.find(rand(Task.first.id..Task.last.id))
      render "random"
    end

random.html.erb
       <%= @task %>   # i want it to make it work, if i pass manually
lets #say `../random/1` lets say as an example it works it shows me the
memory #location of the object.

error log:

 ActionController::ActionControllerError in TasksController#show
Cannot redirect to nil!
