data EntropyPool Source

Pool of Entropy. contains a self mutating pool of entropy, that is always guarantee to contains data.

createEntropyPool :: IO EntropyPool Source

While you can create as many entropy pool as you want, the pool can be shared between multiples RNGs.

createEntropyPoolWith :: Int -> [EntropyBackend] -> IO EntropyPool Source

Create a new entropy pool of a specific size

While you can create as many entropy pool as you want, the pool can be shared between multiples RNGs.

getEntropyFrom :: ByteArray byteArray => EntropyPool -> Int -> IO byteArray Source

Grab a chunk of entropy from the entropy pool.
