Synopsis

This is a port of the PCG random number generation libary, made for C and C++, to Rust.

The library implements the RngCore trait, which automatically implements the Rng trait, providing a standard interface to generate and sample random numbers.

Note: with the 1.0.0 release of pcg-rs, the old sampling methods have been deprecated, please use the sampling methods implemented via the Rng trait instead.

Usage

This crate offers no_std compatibility through the std feature. It is enabled by default, but if you want to use no_std, you can add the package like this:

toml [dependencies.pcg] version = "4.0" default-features = false

This crate also has optional support for serde, which you can enable as a feature:

toml [dependencies.pcg] version = "4.0" features = ["std", "serde"]

Example Usage

```rust use rand::prelude::*; use pcg::Pcg;

// Initialize the default PCG rng state let mut rng = Pcg::default();

// Generate some boolean using the standard gen() method, which generates the // appropriate type with type inference let random_bool: bool = rng.gen(); ```
