//! Random-number generators and samplers
//!
//! # Quick Start
//!
//! ```
//! // rand::random() supports many common types:
//! println!("Uniform i8 sample: {}", match rand::random() {
//!     0i8 => "zero",
//!     i if i > 0 => "positive",
//!     _ => "negative",
//! });
//!
//! // Ranged sampling:
//! use std::f32::consts::PI;
//! println!("Angle: {} degrees", rand::random_range(-PI..PI));
//! ```
//!
