Package fastrand implements a cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator. The generator is seeded using the system's default entropy source, and thereafter produces random values via repeated hashing. As a result, fastrand can generate randomness much faster than crypto/rand, and generation cannot fail beyond a potential panic at init. The method used in this package is similar to the Fortuna algorithm, which is used in used in FreeBSD for /dev/urandom. This package uses techniques that are known to be secure, however the exact implementation has not been heavily reviewed by cryptographers.
