type SingleThreadedGenerator ¶
type SingleThreadedGenerator interface {
// Generates a number in range [0.0, 1.0).
Float64() float64
// Generates a number in range [0, n), where n is of type int64.
Int64N(n int64) int64
// Generates a number in range [0, n), where n is of type int.
IntN(n int) int
// Generates arbitrary bytes of data. This method is guaranteed
// to succeed.
Read(p []byte) (int, error)
// Shuffle the elements in a list.
Shuffle(n int, swap func(i, j int))
// Generates an arbitrary 32-bit integer value.
Uint32() uint32
// Generates an arbitrary 64-bit integer value.
Uint64() uint64
}
SingleThreadedGenerator is a Random Number Generator (RNG) that cannot be used concurrently. This interface is a subset of Go's rand.Rand.
func NewFastSingleThreadedGenerator ¶
func NewFastSingleThreadedGenerator() SingleThreadedGenerator
NewFastSingleThreadedGenerator creates a new SingleThreadedGenerator that is not suitable for cryptographic purposes. The generator is randomly seeded.
type ThreadSafeGenerator ¶
type ThreadSafeGenerator interface {
SingleThreadedGenerator
IsThreadSafe()
}
ThreadSafeGenerator is identical to SingleThreadedGenerator, except that it is safe to use from within multiple goroutines without additional locking. These generators may be slower than their single-threaded counterparts.
var CryptoThreadSafeGenerator ThreadSafeGenerator = cryptoThreadSafeGenerator{ Rand: math_rand.New(cryptoSource{}), }
CryptoThreadSafeGenerator is an instance of ThreadSafeGenerator that is suitable for cryptographic purposes.
var FastThreadSafeGenerator ThreadSafeGenerator = fastThreadSafeGenerator{}
FastThreadSafeGenerator is an instance of ThreadSafeGenerator that is not suitable for cryptographic purposes. The generator is randomly seeded on startup.
