//! Utilities for random number generation
//!
//! Rand provides utilities to generate random numbers, to convert them to
//! useful types and distributions, and some randomness-related algorithms.
//!
//! # Quick Start
//!
//! To get you started quickly, the easiest and highest-level way to get
//! a random value is to use [`random()`]; alternatively you can use
//! [`thread_rng()`]. The [`Rng`] trait provides a useful API on all RNGs, while
//! the [`distributions`] and [`seq`] modules provide further
//! functionality on top of RNGs.
//!
//! ```
//! use rand::prelude::*;
//!
//! if rand::random() { // generates a boolean
//!     // Try printing a random unicode code point (probably a bad idea)!
//!     println!("char: {}", rand::random::<char>());
//! }
//!
//! let mut rng = rand::thread_rng();
//! let y: f64 = rng.gen(); // generates a float between 0 and 1
//!
//! let mut nums: Vec<i32> = (1..100).collect();
//! nums.shuffle(&mut rng);
//! ```
//!
//! # The Book
//!
//! For the user guide and further documentation, please read
//! [The Rust Rand Book](https://rust-random.github.io/book).

/// Generates a random value using the thread-local random number generator.
///
/// This is simply a shortcut for `thread_rng().gen()`. See [`thread_rng`] for
/// documentation of the entropy source and [`Standard`] for documentation of
/// distributions and type-specific generation.
///
/// # Provided implementations
///
/// The following types have provided implementations that
/// generate values with the following ranges and distributions:
///
/// * Integers (`i32`, `u32`, `isize`, `usize`, etc.): Uniformly distributed
///   over all values of the type.
/// * `char`: Uniformly distributed over all Unicode scalar values, i.e. all
///   code points in the range `0...0x10_FFFF`, except for the range
///   `0xD800...0xDFFF` (the surrogate code points). This includes
///   unassigned/reserved code points.
/// * `bool`: Generates `false` or `true`, each with probability 0.5.
/// * Floating point types (`f32` and `f64`): Uniformly distributed in the
///   half-open range `[0, 1)`. See notes below.
/// * Wrapping integers (`Wrapping<T>`), besides the type identical to their
///   normal integer variants.
///
/// Also supported is the generation of the following
/// compound types where all component types are supported:
///
/// *   Tuples (up to 12 elements): each element is generated sequentially.
/// *   Arrays (up to 32 elements): each element is generated sequentially;
///     see also [`Rng::fill`] which supports arbitrary array length for integer
///     types and tends to be faster for `u32` and smaller types.
/// *   `Option<T>` first generates a `bool`, and if true generates and returns
///     `Some(value)` where `value: T`, otherwise returning `None`.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```
/// let x = rand::random::<u8>();
/// println!("{}", x);
///
/// let y = rand::random::<f64>();
/// println!("{}", y);
///
/// if rand::random() { // generates a boolean
///     println!("Better lucky than good!");
/// }
/// ```
///
/// If you're calling `random()` in a loop, caching the generator as in the
/// following example can increase performance.
///
/// ```
/// use rand::Rng;
///
/// let mut v = vec![1, 2, 3];
///
/// for x in v.iter_mut() {
///     *x = rand::random()
/// }
///
/// // can be made faster by caching thread_rng
///
/// let mut rng = rand::thread_rng();
///
/// for x in v.iter_mut() {
///     *x = rng.gen();
/// }
/// ```
