// Jitter
// 
// Description:
// 
//      This is a dependency graph node which takes a
//      floating point value as input, adds a random value,
//      and passes the result on as output.  A time input
//      is used to ensure the output result is repeatable
//      when played back.  A scale input is used to scale 
//      the value beyond 1.0.
// 
// Attributes ( < input, > output ):
// 
//      < input: the input float value
//      < scale: the scalar for the random value (0 - 1.0)
//      < time: the frame number
// 
//      > output: the randomized float value
// 
// Usage:
// 
//      Use jitterNode.mel to insert this DG node between
//      a float value connection in your DG.  See that MEL
//  script for usage information.
