Struct rand::rngs::StdRng

pub struct StdRng(_);

The standard RNG. The PRNG algorithm in StdRng is chosen to be efficient on the current platform, to be statistically strong and unpredictable (meaning a cryptographically secure PRNG).

The current algorithm used on all platforms is HC-128, found in the rand_hc crate.

Reproducibility of output from this generator is however not required, thus future library versions may use a different internal generator with different output. Further, this generator may not be portable and can produce different output depending on the architecture. If you require reproducible output, use a named RNG, for example ChaChaRng from the rand_chacha crate.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for StdRng

fn clone(&self) -> StdRng

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for StdRng

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl RngCore for StdRng

fn next_u32(&mut self) -> u32

Return the next random u32.

fn next_u64(&mut self) -> u64

Return the next random u64.

fn fill_bytes(&mut self, dest: &mut [u8])

Fill dest with random data.

fn try_fill_bytes(&mut self, dest: &mut [u8]) -> Result<(), Error>

Fill dest entirely with random data.

impl CryptoRng for StdRng

impl SeedableRng for StdRng

type Seed = <Hc128Rng as SeedableRng>::Seed

Seed type, which is restricted to types mutably-dereferencable as u8 arrays (we recommend [u8; N] for some N).

fn from_seed(seed: Self::Seed) -> Self

Create a new PRNG using the given seed.

fn from_rng<R: RngCore>(rng: R) -> Result<Self, Error>

Create a new PRNG seeded from another Rng.

fn seed_from_u64(state: u64) -> Self

Create a new PRNG using a u64 seed.
