Implements the Xorshift random number generator.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Xorshift[^1] algorithm is not suitable for cryptographic purposes
|
||
|
|
but is very fast. If you do not know for sure that it fits your
|
||
|
|
requirements, use a more secure one such as `StdRng` or `OsRng`.

## Crate Features
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`rand_xorshift` is `no_std` compatible. It does not require any functionality
|
||
|
|
outside of the `core` lib, thus there are no features to configure.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `serde1` feature includes implementations of `Serialize` and `Deserialize`
|
||
|
|
for the included RNGs.
