|

|
|
* The Random number generator (RNG) module provides random number
|
||
|
|
* generation, see \c havege_rand(). It uses the HAVEGE (HArdware Volatile
|
||
|
|
* Entropy Gathering and Expansion) software heuristic which is claimed
|
||
|
|
* to be an unpredictable or empirically strong* random number generation.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* \* Meaning that there seems to be no practical algorithm that can guess
|
||
|
|
* the next bit with a probability larger than 1/2 in an output sequence.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* This module can be used to generate random numbers.
