rand_os

A random number generator that retrieves randomness straight from the operating system.

This crate is deprecated: OsRng is available in rand_core since version 0.5.1.

This crate provides OsRng as a shim around getrandom implementing RngCore from rand_core.

Note: the rand crate provides an equivalent OsRng; the two implementations are equivalent, though distinct types.
