Expand description
A random.org api bindings.
The randomness comes from atmospheric noise, which for many purposes is better than the pseudo-random number algorithms typically used in computer programs. To use the library you must have an api key which you may get from here.
§Usage
extern crate randomorg;
fn main() {
use randomorg::Random;
let r = Random::new("API KEY HERE");
println!("Result: {:?}", r.generate_integers(-100, 100, 15, true));
let random_data = r.request_integers().min(0).max(100).limit(5).collect::<Vec<i32>>();
println!("Random integers: {:?}", random_data);
}§Warning
However the library provides a thread-safe object, the random.org service does not allow
to use their API from multithreaded-apps. The service processes incoming calls according the
request_id parameter, it must be different for concurrent calls, while this library always
provides request_id equal to 1. So when you use the library from multiple threads the
library will send multiple requests simultaneously with the same request_id field and the
random.org service will refuse to process them.
