Access Numbers API for maths fact

The following Google Apps Script is my first look at accessing an API and handling the data that comes back. I am using Numbers API to return a random maths fact and append it to a Google Sheet.

API Url: http://numbersapi.com/random/math

We use the 'UrlFetchApp' to then call the API and 'getContentText' to store the returned data. From there we can simple 'appendRow' in the spreadsheet to build up a list each time we run the function.
