Package: libghc-crypto-random-api-doc (0.2.0-11build2)

simple random generators API for cryptography related code; documentation

This provides a class of Cryptographic Secure Random generator.

The main difference with the generic Haskell RNG is that it return bytes instead of an integer.

It is quite similar to the CryptoRandomGen class in crypto-api except that error are not returned to the user. Instead the user is suppose to handle reseeding by using the NeedReseed and SupplyEntropy methods. For other type of errors, the user is expected to generate bytes with the parameters bounds explicity defined here.

The CPRG need to be able to generate up to 2^20 bytes in one call.

This package provides the documentation for a library for the Haskell programming language. See http://www.haskell.org/ for more information on Haskell.
