[][src]Struct rand::rngs::EntropyRng

pub struct EntropyRng { /* fields omitted */ }
Deprecated since 0.7.0:

use rngs::OsRng instead

An interface returning random data from external source(s), provided specifically for securely seeding algorithmic generators (PRNGs).

This is deprecated. It is suggested you use rngs::OsRng instead.

Methods

impl EntropyRng[src]

pub fn new() -> Self[src]

Create a new EntropyRng.

This method will do no system calls or other initialization routines, those are done on first use. This is done to make new infallible, and try_fill_bytes the only place to report errors.

impl<R> Rng for R where
    R: RngCore + ?Sized
[src]

fn gen<T>(&mut self) -> T where
    Standard: Distribution<T>, 
[src]

Return a random value supporting the [Standard] distribution. Read more

fn gen_range<T: SampleUniform, B1, B2>(&mut self, low: B1, high: B2) -> T where
    B1: SampleBorrow<T> + Sized,
    B2: SampleBorrow<T> + Sized
[src]

Generate a random value in the range [low, high), i.e. inclusive of low and exclusive of high. Read more

Sample a new value, using the given distribution. Read more

fn sample_iter<T, D>(self, distr: D) -> DistIter<D, Self, T> where
    D: Distribution<T>,
    Self: Sized
[src]

Create an iterator that generates values using the given distribution. Read more

fn fill<T: AsByteSliceMut + ?Sized>(&mut self, dest: &mut T)[src]

Fill dest entirely with random bytes (uniform value distribution), where dest is any type supporting [AsByteSliceMut], namely slices and arrays over primitive integer types (i8, i16, u32, etc.). Read more

fn try_fill<T: AsByteSliceMut + ?Sized>(
    &mut self,
    dest: &mut T
) -> Result<(), Error>
[src]

Fill dest entirely with random bytes (uniform value distribution), where dest is any type supporting [AsByteSliceMut], namely slices and arrays over primitive integer types (i8, i16, u32, etc.). Read more

fn gen_bool(&mut self, p: f64) -> bool[src]

Return a bool with a probability p of being true. Read more

fn gen_ratio(&mut self, numerator: u32, denominator: u32) -> bool[src]

Return a bool with a probability of numerator/denominator of being true. I.e. gen_ratio(2, 3) has chance of 2 in 3, or about 67%, of returning true. If numerator == denominator, then the returned value is guaranteed to be true. If numerator == 0, then the returned value is guaranteed to be false. Read more
