Crypt::Random::Source::Weak::rand(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Crypt::Random::Source::Weak::rand(3)

Crypt::Random::Source::Weak::rand - Use "rand" to create random bytes

version 0.12

    use Crypt::Random::Source::Weak::rand;

    my $p = Crypt::Random::Source::Weak::rand->new;

    $p->get(1024);

This is a weak source of random data, that uses Perl's builtin "rand" function.

Sets the random seed to a checksum of the stringified values of @blah.

There is no need to call this method unless you want the random sequence to be identical to a previously run, in which case you should seed with the same value.

Produces $n random bytes.
