I don't need anything fancy. Most of the time, it's for video 
games, so I want to make sure the numbers are always shuffled. 
Here it's for maze generation, so I wan each maze to be unique.

Eventually, I would like to use a fixed seed generator, so that I 
can generate the same maze over and over again if necessary. I 
guess, in that case, I could create a generator.

I found the the simplest way to implement this is not to define 
any seed or generator and simply call:

~~~
uniform(0,2)
~~~

with the range you want. It was a bit counter intuitive because 
most languages have a ```rand()``` function. But I prefer 
specifying a range.

Thanks again.
