18/// A small-state, fast, non-crypto, non-portable PRNG
19///
20/// This is the "standard small" RNG, a generator with the following properties:
21///
22/// - Non-[portable]: any future library version may replace the algorithm
23/// and results may be platform-dependent.
24/// (For a small portable generator, use the [rand_pcg] or [rand_xoshiro] crate.)
25/// - Non-cryptographic: output is easy to predict (insecure)
26/// - [Quality]: statistically good quality
27/// - Fast: the RNG is fast for both bulk generation and single values, with
28/// consistent cost of method calls
29/// - Fast initialization
30/// - Small state: little memory usage (current state size is 16-32 bytes
31/// depending on platform)
32///
33/// The current algorithm is
34/// `Xoshiro256PlusPlus` on 64-bit platforms and `Xoshiro128PlusPlus` on 32-bit
35/// platforms. Both are also implemented by the [rand_xoshiro] crate.
36///
37/// ## Seeding (construction)
38///
39/// This generator implements the [`SeedableRng`] trait. All methods are
40/// suitable for seeding, but note that, even with a fixed seed, output is not
41/// [portable]. Some suggestions:
42///
43/// 1. To automatically seed with a unique seed, use [`SeedableRng::from_rng`]:
44/// ```
45/// use rand::SeedableRng;
46/// use rand::rngs::SmallRng;
47/// let rng = SmallRng::from_rng(&mut rand::rng());
48/// # let _: SmallRng = rng;
49/// ```
50/// or [`SeedableRng::from_os_rng`]:
51/// ```
52/// # use rand::SeedableRng;
53/// # use rand::rngs::SmallRng;
54/// let rng = SmallRng::from_os_rng();
55/// # let _: SmallRng = rng;
56/// ```
57/// 2. To use a deterministic integral seed, use `seed_from_u64`. This uses a
58/// hash function internally to yield a (typically) good seed from any
59/// input.
60/// ```
61/// # use rand::{SeedableRng, rngs::SmallRng};
62/// let rng = SmallRng::seed_from_u64(1);
63/// # let _: SmallRng = rng;
64/// ```
65/// 3. To seed deterministically from text or other input, use [`rand_seeder`].
66///
67/// See also [Seeding RNGs] in the book.
68///
69/// ## Generation
70///
71/// The generators implements [`RngCore`] and thus also [`Rng`][crate::Rng].
72/// See also the [Random Values] chapter in the book.
