10 //! Utilities for random number generation
11 //!
12 //! Rand provides utilities to generate random numbers, to convert them to
13 //! useful types and distributions, and some randomness-related algorithms.
14 //!
15 //! # Quick Start
16 //!
17 //! To get you started quickly, the easiest and highest-level way to get
18 //! a random value is to use [`random()`]; alternatively you can use
19 //! [`thread_rng()`]. The [`Rng`] trait provides a useful API on all RNGs, while
20 //! the [`distributions`] and [`seq`] modules provide further
21 //! functionality on top of RNGs.
22 //!
23 //! ```
24 //! use rand::prelude::*;
25 //!
26 //! if rand::random() { // generates a boolean
27 //! // Try printing a random unicode code point (probably a bad idea)!
28 //! println!("char: {}", rand::random::<char>());
29 //! }
30 //!
31 //! let mut rng = rand::thread_rng();
32 //! let y: f64 = rng.gen(); // generates a float between 0 and 1
33 //!
34 //! let mut nums: Vec<i32> = (1..100).collect();
35 //! nums.shuffle(&mut rng);
36 //! ```
37 //!

41 //! [The Rust Rand Book](https://rust-random.github.io/book).

113 ///
114 /// This is simply a shortcut for `thread_rng().gen()`. See [`thread_rng`] for
115 /// documentation of the entropy source and [`Standard`] for documentation of
116 /// distributions and type-specific generation.
117 ///
118 /// # Provided implementations
119 ///
120 /// The following types have provided implementations that
121 /// generate values with the following ranges and distributions:
122 ///
123 /// * Integers (`i32`, `u32`, `isize`, `usize`, etc.): Uniformly distributed
124 /// over all values of the type.
125 /// * `char`: Uniformly distributed over all Unicode scalar values, i.e. all
126 /// code points in the range `0...0x10_FFFF`, except for the range
127 /// `0xD800...0xDFFF` (the surrogate code points). This includes
128 /// unassigned/reserved code points.
129 /// * `bool`: Generates `false` or `true`, each with probability 0.5.
130 /// * Floating point types (`f32` and `f64`): Uniformly distributed in the
131 /// half-open range `[0, 1)`. See notes below.
132 /// * Wrapping integers (`Wrapping<T>`), besides the type identical to their
133 /// normal integer variants.
134 ///
135 /// Also supported is the generation of the following
136 /// compound types where all component types are supported:
137 ///
138 /// * Tuples (up to 12 elements): each element is generated sequentially.
139 /// * Arrays (up to 32 elements): each element is generated sequentially;
140 /// see also [`Rng::fill`] which supports arbitrary array length for integer
141 /// types and tends to be faster for `u32` and smaller types.
142 /// * `Option<T>` first generates a `bool`, and if true generates and returns
143 /// `Some(value)` where `value: T`, otherwise returning `None`.
144 ///
145 /// # Examples
146 ///
147 /// ```
148 /// let x = rand::random::<u8>();
149 /// println!("{}", x);
150 ///
151 /// let y = rand::random::<f64>();
152 /// println!("{}", y);
153 ///
154 /// if rand::random() { // generates a boolean
155 /// println!("Better lucky than good!");
156 /// }
157 /// ```
158 ///
159 /// If you're calling `random()` in a loop, caching the generator as in the
160 /// following example can increase performance.
161 ///
162 /// ```
163 /// use rand::Rng;
