+Also, you may wonder why we are using `%` on the result of `rand::random()`.
+This operator is called 'modulo', and it returns the remainder of a division.
+By taking the modulo of the result of `rand::random()`, we're limiting the
+values to be between 0 and 99. Then, we add one to the result, making it from 1
+to 100.
