Readme for dice-entropy-conduit-1.0.0.3

[back to package description]

This library uses rejection sampling to provide cryptographically secure n-sided dice rolls and random sampling (within a given range).

Usage:

If we want to use the system-specific entropy source (systemEntropy) to produce 10 dice rolls of a 6-sided dice (i.e. range [0,5]), you can write:

systemEntropy $$ diceRolls 6 =$= CL.take 10 [5,1,3,3,0,5,3,2,2,1]
