Module nannou::rand [−][src]
Expand description
Items related to randomness and random number generators. Also provides some high-level helper functions.
Helper functions include random_f32(), random_f64() and random_range(min, max).

Traits
A marker trait used to indicate that an RngCore
or BlockRngCore
implementation is supposed to be cryptographically secure.
Types which may be filled with random data
An automatically-implemented extension trait on RngCore
providing high-level
generic methods for sampling values and other convenience methods.
The core of a random number generator.
A random number generator that can be explicitly seeded.
Functions
Generates a random value using the thread-local random number generator.
Generates and returns a random ascii character.
A wrapper function around the random
function that avoids the need for specifying a type in
the case that it cannot be inferred. The primary purpose for this is to simplify the random API
for new rust users.
A wrapper function around the random

the case that it cannot be inferred. The primary purpose for this is to simplify the random API
for new rust users.
A function for generating a random value within the given range.
Retrieve the lazily-initialized thread-local random number generator,
seeded by the system. Intended to be used in method chaining style,
e.g. thread_rng().gen::<i32>()
, or cached locally, e.g.
let mut rng = thread_rng();
. Invoked by the Default
trait, making
ThreadRng::default()
equivalent.
