I made this code to randomly select a hue for a given pet. I have two questions regarding this code. I realize that there may be a function for this built in already but I still wanted to try to make my own.
1. I feel like this is far to much code to accomplish what I want and I don't feel like this is the best way to create "random" percentage chances. ( I know there is a random double command and also a random list command. I had issues teaching myself how to use these commands.)
2. I can make this a stand alone function and just call the function rather than including this code in every mobile file correct?

! Any possibility that you can elaborate on what is happening here? If I were to guess what is happening....It seems that you are calling the randomlist and passing another utility as a parameter. After this the min/max numbers you are passing do what? Are these HUE number values? Thank you for your initial response!
