//! Cryptographic pseudo-random number generation.
//!
//! An application should create a single `SystemRandom` and then use it for
//! all randomness generation. Functions that generate random bytes should take
//! a `&dyn SecureRandom` parameter instead of instantiating their own. Besides
//! being more efficient, this also helps document where non-deterministic
//! (random) outputs occur. Taking a reference to a `SecureRandom` also helps
//! with testing techniques like fuzzing, where it is useful to use a
//! (non-secure) deterministic implementation of `SecureRandom` so that results
//! can be replayed. Following this pattern also may help with sandboxing
//! (seccomp filters on Linux in particular). See `SystemRandom`'s
//! documentation for more details.

//! # Example
//! ```
//! use aws_lc_rs::{rand, rand::SecureRandom};
//!
//! //  Using `rand::fill`
//! let mut rand_bytes = [0u8; 32];
//! rand::fill(&mut rand_bytes).unwrap();
//!
//! // Using `SystemRandom`
//! let rng = rand::SystemRandom::new();
//! rng.fill(&mut rand_bytes).unwrap();
//!
//! // Using `rand::generate`
//! let random_array = rand::generate(&rng).unwrap();
//! let more_rand_bytes: [u8; 64] = random_array.expose();
//! ```
