Yes I know lamdas, but try not to use them.
I am not very picky about the exact source of time, I just want
a different integer every time I run the program. But while
looking at the doc, it seemed complicated because I required
time zones, and I could not get the entire time stamp as a
single integer.
Im not sure exactly why it automagically works, but it does work,
the defualt rng is time seeded somehow
I am not exactly sure what the exclamation points stand for in
the first line of code.

its a simplification but assume function headers have two parts,
a compile time part and a runtime part thats from c; while it
trys to fill in the compile time part implicitly if theres no
information and your passing a type in, you use ! to fill the
compile time header
