truerandom

This is a simple package for generating true random numbers, provided by random.org.

It creates integer and float64 random numbers within a given range.

Usage

you first need to create a generator object:

gen, err := NewIntGenerator(min, max, num)

or

gen, err := NewFloatGenerator(min, max, num)

Parameters

min: the minimum random walue created min: the maximum random walue created num: the amount of numbers created internally

example

if min is 4 and max is 45, the smallest random numer is 4 and the largest is 45.

the num parameters describes how many random numbers are fetched from random.org in one go. If you ask for more numbers then initially fetched, the package fetches the next num numbers.
