Class Fortuna
- Cloneable, EventListener, Serializable, IRandom, RandomEventListener
The Fortuna continuously-seeded pseudo-random number generator. This
generator is composed of two major pieces: the entropy accumulator
and the generator function. The former takes in random bits and
incorporates them into the generator's state. The latter takes this
base entropy and generates pseudo-random bits from it.
There are some things users of this class
must be aware of:
- must
Serializable
