---
---Converts a color from gamma-space (sRGB) to linear-space (RGB). This is useful when doing gamma-correct rendering and you need to do math in linear RGB in the few cases where LÖVE doesn't handle conversions automatically.
---
---Read more about gamma-correct rendering here, here, and here.
---

---
---Gets the seed of the random number generator.
---
---The seed is split into two numbers due to Lua's use of doubles for all number values - doubles can't accurately represent integer  values above 2^53, but the seed can be an integer value up to 2^64.

---
---Gets the current state of the random number generator. This returns an opaque implementation-dependent string which is only useful for later use with love.math.setRandomState or RandomGenerator:setState.
---
---This is different from love.math.getRandomSeed in that getRandomState gets the random number generator's current state, whereas getRandomSeed gets the previously set seed number.

---
---Converts a color from linear-space (RGB) to gamma-space (sRGB). This is useful when storing linear RGB color values in an image, because the linear RGB color space has less precision than sRGB for dark colors, which can result in noticeable color banding when drawing.
---
---In general, colors chosen based on what they look like on-screen are already in gamma-space and should not be double-converted. Colors calculated using math are often in the linear RGB space.
