//! Random number generation traits
//!
//! This crate is mainly of interest to crates publishing implementations of
//! [`RngCore`]. Other users are encouraged to use the [`rand`] crate instead
//! which re-exports the main traits and error types.
//!
//! [`RngCore`] is the core trait implemented by algorithmic pseudo-random number
//! generators and external random-number sources.
//!
//! [`SeedableRng`] is an extension trait for construction from fixed seeds and
//! other random number generators.
//!
//! [`Error`] is provided for error-handling. It is safe to use in `no_std`
//! environments.
//!
//! The [`impls`] and [`le`] sub-modules include a few small functions to assist
//! implementation of [`RngCore`].

/// The core of a random number generator.
///
/// This trait encapsulates the low-level functionality common to all
/// generators, and is the "back end", to be implemented by generators.
/// End users should normally use the `Rng` trait from the [`rand`] crate,
/// which is automatically implemented for every type implementing `RngCore`.
///
/// Three different methods for generating random data are provided since the
/// optimal implementation of each is dependent on the type of generator. There
/// is no required relationship between the output of each; e.g. many
/// implementations of [`fill_bytes`] consume a whole number of `u32` or `u64`
/// values and drop any remaining unused bytes.
///
/// The [`try_fill_bytes`] method is a variant of [`fill_bytes`] allowing error
/// handling; it is not deemed sufficiently useful to add equivalents for
/// [`next_u32`] or [`next_u64`] since the latter methods are almost always used
/// with algorithmic generators (PRNGs), which are normally infallible.
///
/// Algorithmic generators implementing [`SeedableRng`] should normally have
/// *portable, reproducible* output, i.e. fix Endianness when converting values
/// to avoid platform differences, and avoid making any changes which affect
/// output (except by communicating that the release has breaking changes).
///
/// Typically implementators will implement only one of the methods available
/// in this trait directly, then use the helper functions from the
/// [`impls`] module to implement the other methods.
///
/// It is recommended that implementations also implement:
///
/// - `Debug` with a custom implementation which *does not* print any internal
///   state (at least, [`CryptoRng`]s should not risk leaking state through
///   `Debug`).
/// - `Serialize` and `Deserialize` (from Serde), preferably making Serde
///   support optional at the crate level in PRNG libs.
/// - `Clone`, if possible.
/// - *never* implement `Copy` (accidental copies may cause repeated values).
/// - *do not* implement `Default` for pseudorandom generators, but instead
///   implement [`SeedableRng`], to guide users towards proper seeding.
///   External / hardware RNGs can choose to implement `Default`.
/// - `Eq` and `PartialEq` could be implemented, but are probably not useful.
///
/// # Example
///
/// A simple example, obviously not generating very *random* output:
///
/// ```
/// #![allow(dead_code)]
