Returns a deterministic fixed-point value in <code>0.0</code>..<code>1.0</code> (exclusive of 1). Multiply it into a range, or compare it against a probability. The sequence is fixed for a given <code>Random.seed</code>.

program Demo {
  handler Seed phase Start { Random.seed(value: 7) }
  handler Step phase Update {
    let t = Random.value()
  }
