Struct ndarray_rand::rand::rngs::adapter::ReadRng

pub struct ReadRng<R> { /* fields omitted */ }

An RNG that reads random bytes straight from any type supporting std::io::Read, for example files.

This will work best with an infinite reader, but that is not required.

This can be used with /dev/urandom on Unix but it is recommended to use OsRng instead.

Panics

ReadRng uses std::io::Read::read_exact, which retries on interrupts. All other errors from the underlying reader, including when it does not have enough data, will only be reported through try_fill_bytes. The other RngCore methods will panic in case of an error.

Example

use rand::Rng;
use rand::rngs::adapter::ReadRng;

let data = vec![1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8];
let mut rng = ReadRng::new(&data[..]);
println!("{:x}", rng.gen::<u32>());
