@ -10,10 +10,8 @@ random [SEED]
`random` outputs a psuedo-random number from 0 to 32767, inclusive.
Even ignoring the very narrow range of values you should not assume
this produces truly random values within that range. Do not use the
value for any cryptographic purposes. Even if you're using it to, for
example, generate unique identifiers you should be careful about handling
collisions; i.e., the same random number appearing more than once in a
given fish instance.
value for any cryptographic purposes, and take care to handle collisions:
the same random number appearing more than once in a given fish instance.
If a `SEED` value is provided, it is used to seed the random number
generator, and no output will be produced. This can be useful for debugging
