Hi all,

The old comment of this function had a double whitespace and contained
grammatical errors, such as: `the randomness by this function`, `at
least once at any point prior`. Replace those sentences with `the
randomness returned by this function`, `at any point prior to this`
respectively.

Thanks,
Gusted

Thanks. As mentioned, "at any point prior" seems fine to me, so I kept
that as-is, but committed the rest, and rewrote the commit message.
