random-bytestring: Efficient generation of random bytestrings
This package is deprecated. Please, use
genByteString
from the random
package (version >=1.2) instead.
Efficient generation of random bytestrings. The implementation populates uninitialized memory with uniformily distributed random 64 bit words (and 8 bit words for remaining bytes at the end of the bytestring).
Random words are generated using the PRNG from
the mwc-random package
or the pcg-random
package. It is also possible to use a custom PRNG by providing
an instance for the RandomWords
type class and using the function
generate
from the module Data.ByteString.Random.Internal.
The generated byte strings are suitable for statistical applications. They are not suitable for cryptographic applications.
