| solid | 1: Generate u and v randomly (normal operation; variation is a blur) 0: Set u and v from input x and y (makes this a normal variation, more difficult to use) |
| param_a through param_f | Values that can be used by the formula to parameterize it; parameters not used in the formula are ignored |
