+\title{Add a random jitter to a count variable to mask its true value}
+\usage{
+perturb_count(x, fac = 3)
+}
+\arguments{
+\item{x}{the vector of numerics}
+
+\item{fac}{the range of values to add or subtract to perturb the count}
+}
+\description{
+Add a random jitter to a count variable to mask its true value
+}
+\details{
+The count in the name means that this function enforces a floor of
+0 on values, so values perturbed to have less than 0 will be capped at 0.
+}

+perturb_count(20:30, fac = 3)
