Functions and constants included in the Random module.

Added in 0.6.0

version	changes
`0.5.0`	Originally named `randomInt32`

randomUint32 : () => Result<Uint32, Exception>

Produce a random 32-bit integer. This function can be slow, so it’s best to seed a generator if lots of random data is needed.

Returns:

type	description
`Result<Uint32, Exception>`	`Ok(num)` of a random Uint32 if successful or `Err(exception)` otherwise

Result<Uint32, Exception>: Ok(num) of a random Uint32 if successful or Err(exception) otherwise

Added in 0.6.0

version	changes
`0.5.0`	Originally named `randomInt64`

randomUint64 : () => Result<Uint64, Exception>

Produce a random 64-bit integer. This function can be slow, so it’s best to seed a generator if lots of random data is needed.

Returns:

type	description
`Result<Uint64, Exception>`	`Ok(num)` of a random Uint64 if successful or `Err(exception)` otherwise

Result<Uint64, Exception>: Ok(num) of a random Uint64 if successful or Err(exception) otherwise

random : () => Result<Number, Exception>

Produce a random number. This function can be slow, so it’s best to seed a generator if lots of random data is needed.

Returns:

type	description
`Result<Number, Exception>`	`Ok(num)` of a random number if successful or `Err(exception)` otherwise

Result<Number, Exception>: Ok(num) of a random number if successful or Err(exception) otherwise
