NAME
Crypt::Random::Source::Weak::rand - Use "rand" to create random bytes
SYNOPSIS
use Crypt::Random::Source::Weak::rand; my $p = Crypt::Random::Source::Weak::rand->new; $p->get(1024);
DESCRIPTION
This is a weak source of random data, that uses Perl's builtin "rand" function.
METHODS
seed @blah 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. get $n Produces $n random bytes.
