Code Challenge
I'm still kind of a rookie but here's a long way using PHP

Hey Jacob. I don't understand the challenge. I'll take a stab at writing my understanding of the problem. Please correct me.
You are given minX, minY representing the lower left point of a rectangle. You are given maxX, maxY representing the upper right point of a rectangle. Write a function that takes these 4 parameters and returns a random point on the perimeter of the rectangle.
Your current code doesn't accomplish this but seems to be going in that direction. Correct me if I'm wrong in my understanding. Thanks so much.
