Crate vitaminc_random

Vitamin C Random

A carefully designed random number generator that is safe to use for cryptographic purposes.

This crate is part of the Vitamin C framework to make cryptography code healthy.

Bounded Random Numbers

The BoundedRng trait provides a way to generate random numbers within a specific range.

use vitaminc_random::{BoundedRng, SafeRand, SeedableRng};

let mut rng = SafeRand::from_entropy();
let value: u32 = rng.next_bounded(10);
assert!(value <= 10);

Or using a Protected value:

use vitaminc_protected::{Controlled, Protected};
use vitaminc_random::{BoundedRng, SafeRand, SeedableRng};

let mut rng = SafeRand::from_entropy();
let value: Protected<u32> = rng.next_bounded(Protected::new(10));
assert!(value.risky_unwrap() <= 10);

Structs

SafeRand

A secure random number generator that is safe to use for cryptographic purposes.

Enums

RandomError

Traits

BoundedRng

A trait for generating random numbers within a specific range.

Fill

Types which may be filled with random data

Generatable

A trait for types that can be generated randomly. The random number generator is passed as an argument to the generate method and must implement the SafeRand trait.

RngCore

The core of a random number generator.

SeedableRng

A random number generator that can be explicitly seeded.
