The idea with this one is to just randomly flash random colors on random pixels. This is a good example of where using the (r,g,b) version of setPixelColor() is useful. We'll generate a random red value, a random green value, and a random blue value. Then we just call setPixelColor(pixel, r, g, b) for a random pixel.
This could have been done using the hex value, but coding this way is more readable and intuitive.
