I managed to use this piece of code and it worked.

I am not exactly sure what the exclamation points stand for in
the first line of code. Probably, defining a type to class
```castFrom``` and function ```to```. But I get the idea that it
just cast long to uint since ```Random``` requires an unsigned
int.
I assume from this line of code that C casting like
```(uint)varname``` would not work.
