std::random_device(3cxx)

okay so welcome to the std::random_device page from the 3cxx manual 💅✨ — yes, the manual name is 3cxx, and this page is all about the random-device cutie.

🌸 NAME 🌸

std::random_device

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

To get access, include this, bestie:

#include <random>

🎀 Public Types 🎀

• typedef unsigned int result_type — the public type name, and it is literally unsigned int, no cap 💖

💅 Public Member Functions 💅

• random_device (const random_device &)=delete — copy situation? deleted, bestie 💀
• random_device (const std::string &__token) — constructor with a const std::string &__token token, slay ✨
• double entropy () const noexcept — returns a double, and it’s const noexcept 🫶
• result_type operator() () — call operator with no args, returns result_type ⭐
• void operator= (const random_device &)=delete — assignment? also deleted, not happening 🙈

👑 Static Public Member Functions 👑

• static constexpr result_type max () — static, constexpr, returns result_type 🔥
• static constexpr result_type min () — same static constexpr energy, returns result_type 👑

🦋 Detailed Description 🦋

okay so the whole vibe is: it’s a standard interface to a platform-specific non-deterministic random number generator — if any are available, bestie. That “if any” is doing real work, so don’t forget it.

Since: C++11 — iconic behavior since forever ago (well, since C++11) 🌈

🎀 Member Typedef Documentation 🎀

• typedef unsigned int std::random_device::result_type — this is the type of the generated random value, periodt 🍓

cute sign-off: source/version is libstdc++, manual tag 3cxx; the date? not shown on this page, so no date to spill, bestie 🫶💅
