+Random::
+; A simple hardware-based random number generator (RNG).
+
+; Two random numbers are generated by adding and subtracting
+; the divider to the respective values every time it's called.
+
+; The divider is a register that increments at a rate of 16384Hz.
+; For comparison, the Game Boy operates at a clock speed of 4.2MHz.
+
+; Additionally, an equivalent function is executed in VBlank.
+
+; This leaves a with the value in hRandomSub.
