I am using Frescobaldi and studying the Scheme Book. When I compile,
mylist = #( list 'red random 12 )

If this is an exercise to demonstrate random numbers, I wonder if it
needs more parentheses.
% CODE
\version "2.19.80"
mylist = #(list 'red (random 12))
#(display mylist)
% END CODE
If I run it that way in Frescobaldi, it always returns: (red 3)
If I use lilypond scheme-sandbox, I get things like this:

(red 3)

(red 4)

ACCOUNTING TROLL: This is our random number generator... nine nine nine

DILBERT: That doesn't sound random to me.
ACCOUNTING TROLL: That's the trouble with random numbers. You never can
tell.
