| generic methods for sampling values and other convenience methods.</p> |
| <p>This is the primary trait to use when generating random values.</p> |
| <h2 id="generic-usage" class="section-header"><a href="#generic-usage">Generic usage</a></h2> |
| <p>The basic pattern is <code>fn foo<R: Rng + ?Sized>(rng: &mut R)</code>. Some |
| things are worth noting here:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Since <code>Rng: RngCore</code> and every <code>RngCore</code> implements <code>Rng</code>, it makes no |
| difference whether we use <code>R: Rng</code> or <code>R: RngCore</code>.</li> |
| <li>The <code>+ ?Sized</code> un-bounding allows functions to be called directly on |
| type-erased references; i.e. <code>foo(r)</code> where <code>r: &mut dyn RngCore</code>. Without |
| this it would be necessary to write <code>foo(&mut r)</code>.</li> |
| </ul> |
| <p>An alternative pattern is possible: <code>fn foo<R: Rng>(rng: R)</code>. This has some |
| trade-offs. It allows the argument to be consumed directly without a <code>&mut</code> |
| (which is how <code>from_rng(thread_rng())</code> works); also it still works directly |
| on references (including type-erased references). Unfortunately within the |
| function <code>foo</code> it is not known whether <code>rng</code> is a reference type or not, |
| hence many uses of <code>rng</code> require an extra reference, either explicitly |
| (<code>distr.sample(&mut rng)</code>) or implicitly (<code>rng.gen()</code>); one may hope the |
| optimiser can remove redundant references later.</p> |
