This commit adds a detail to a comment about
random.random(). Before this commit, a comment saysrandom.random()returns arandom float. After this commit, that comment saysrandom.random()returns arandom float from interval (0.0, 1.0].I propose to add this detail to the comment because it clarifies (for me) what the function returns.
However, this comment occurs in a 'brief tour', and the guide for a brief tour can be terse and expect the reader to go read the relevant page (e.g. in this case, https://docs.python.org/3/library/random.html#random.random) if the reader wants to know more than an overview offers. Given that view, the detail I add in this commit is not warranted.
