Tord,

You are not doing anything wrong. If you feel the need to keep a clear
conscience, I would say just include something on your webpage or in the
download file that has the shared code. Just slap the random function in a file
and say, "I borrowed this from Crafty." Then add it to the zip file and be done
with it.

Unless the author tells you to remove the borrowed code, I don't see any reason
to change anything.
