Generates a random number at each pixel location. When using the 'uniform' distribution, outputs are in the range of [0, 1). Using the 'normal' distribution, the outputs have μ=0, σ=1, but no explicit limits.

The `seed` argument, a long integer, controls the random number generator. The `distribution` argument, defaulting to \"uniform,\" can be either \"uniform\" (outputting values within [0, 1)) or \"normal\" (outputting values with μ=0, σ=1).
