Package rng is a compact, fast, sponge-based,
lockless and hard-to-predict random number generator. See Green tick > QA / Tests > Details for
some statistical tests and benchmarks. It is compared with standard library's
math/rand and an alternative implementation
exp/rand below:
| Library | Effective entropy (hidden info, in bits) |
Used memory (in bytes) |
|---|---|---|
| rng | 128 | 24 |
| std | 31 | 4920 |
| alt | 64 | 48 |
rng API adheres to semantic versioning.
rng is not suitable for cryptographic applications because it has 128 bits capacity.
