I just pull an undergoing project on GitHub and its name is “ProblemReductions.jl”. I tried to run the example given in the directory “example/landscape”. There are Project.toml which clearifies the package that is useful in the example.  
Then I jump in to this directory and type:

```julia
Julia> julia
Julia>using Pkg
Julia>Pkg.activate(".")
Julia>Pkg.instantiate()
pkg>st

```

then everything went well, I did:

```julia
Julia> include("main.jl")

```

After a while, REPL complained:

```julia
ERROR:LoadError:UndefVarError: `Random` undefined

```

And the relative code in the main.jl is:

```julia
Random.seed!(seed)

```

What is the problem?

The immediate error is due to the script not importing `Random`. But it’s also missing definitions of `seed` and `K`, and probably is supposed to import `nv` from `Graphs`.

Either the script is incomplete or not intended to be run in isolation. I recommend that you open an issue with the package to get this clarified.
