pub struct AesRng(_);
Expand description

Implementation of a random number generator based on fixed-key AES.

This uses AES in a counter-mode-esque way, but with the counter always starting at zero. When used as a PRNG this is okay [TODO: citation?].

Implementations

Create a new random number generator using a random seed from rand::random.

Create a new RNG using a random seed from this one.

Generate random bits.

Generate N * 128 random bits.

Alternatives

Consider using Self::random_bits instead.

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