| 11 | Implements a selection of PCG random number generators. | |
| 12 | ||
| 13 | > PCG is a family of simple fast space-efficient statistically good algorithms | |
| 14 | > for random number generation. [Melissa O'Neill, Harvey Mudd College, 2014]. | |
| 15 | ||
| 16 | The PCG algorithms are not suitable for cryptographic uses, but perform well | |
| 17 | in statistical tests, use little memory and are fairly fast. | |
| 18 | See the [pcg-random website](http://www.pcg-random.org/). | |
| 19 | ||
| 20 | This crate depends on [rand_core](https://crates.io/crates/rand_core) and is | |
| 21 | part of the [Rand project](https://github.com/rust-random/rand). | |
