Description: program will randomly generate a song by picking the
 -Key
      -Starting Note
      -Major/Minor
      -Sharp/Flat/Neutral
 -Chord Progression
      -Numeric Value (in scale)
      *Major/Minor is not generated, but displayed according to a selection structure
 -Notes
      -Numeric Value (in scale)
      -Duration
Theoretically, this could be more random, but this is just the control group."""
