// Package rand implements pseudo-random number generators. // // Random numbers are generated by a Source. Top-level functions, such as // Float64 and Int, use a default shared Source that produces a deterministic // sequence of values each time a program is run. Use the Seed function to // initialize the default Source if different behavior is required for each run. // The default Source is safe for concurrent use by multiple goroutines, but // Sources created by NewSource are not. // // Mathematical interval notation such as [0, n) is used throughout the // documentation for this package. // // For random numbers suitable for security-sensitive work, see the crypto/rand // package.
