gollark: ```rust// randomly increase/decrease one of the channels in a color by `range`fn mod_channel(rng: &mut WyRand, range: u16, n: u16) -> u16 { let rand = rng.generate_range(0, range * 2 + 1); let o = ((n as u32) + (rand as u32)).saturating_sub(range as u32); o as u16}```
gollark: This is basically just meant to increase/decrease a `u16` by a randomly generated `u16` amount.
gollark: I *think* I wanted to avoid having to convert to signed integers, so it does some weird stuff where it does subtraction instead?
gollark: I'm not actually entirely sure why and I don't understand what this is doing.
gollark: I use `saturating_sub` and stuff is converted to `u32`s.
