Overview 📖

Random (VRD) is a Rust library for generating high-quality random numbers based on the Mersenne Twister algorithm.

The Mersenne Twister is a pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) that is often used in computer simulations and games. It is a fast and reliable PRNG.

The Random (VRD) is used to generate random numbers using the Mersenne Twister algorithm. It generates pseudorandom integers uniformly distributed in 0..(2^32 - 1) starting from any odd seed in 0..(2^32 - 1).

The index is incremented after each random number is generated. When the index reaches 624, the array is reinitialized and the index is reset to 0.

Features ✨

  • Create new random number generator and seed it with a value.
  • Design for speed and efficiency in mind.
  • Generate random 32-bit unsigned integer within a given range.
  • Provide random numbers of different types, including booleans, bytes, chars, doubles, floats, integers, and unsigned integers.
  • Mutate the state of the random number generator.
  • Produce pseudo-random number sequences that are different from each other.
  • Regulate the randomness of the generated numbers, including the seed value and the number of bits used.
  • Select a random element from a slice of values.

Changelog 📚

This release includes several improvements, bug fixes, and new features to the vrd crate. Here's a summary of the changes:

Features

  • Added MersenneTwisterConfig struct along with corresponding tests. This struct provides configuration options for the Mersenne Twister RNG.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed CI jobs and added new ones to ensure better reliability of the CI pipeline.
  • Resolved an issue where gen keyword conflicted with the 2024 edition, now using r#gen as a raw identifier.

Documentation

  • Updated examples documentation and sorted them for better clarity.
  • Improved log_entry_async function and updated unit tests accordingly.
  • Updated crate example code and documentation, along with the addition of new functions.

Tests

  • Added new test case test_new_custom_invalid_parameters to ensure robustness of custom parameter handling.
  • Expanded test coverage for random.rs module to enhance reliability and correctness.

Style

  • Fixed formatting issues and applied consistent code styling throughout the project.
