Typically, you use a +// bit generator in combination with a distribution to provide random values. +// +// Example: +// +// // Create an absl::BitGen. There is no need to seed this bit generator. +// absl::BitGen gen; +// +// // Generate an integer value in the closed interval [1,6] +// int die_roll = absl::uniform_int_distribution<int>(1, 6)(gen); +// +// `absl::BitGen` is seeded by default with non-deterministic data to produce +// different sequences of random values across different instances, including +// different binary invocations. This behavior is different than the standard +// library bit generators, which use golden values as their seeds. Default +// construction intentionally provides no stability guarantees, to avoid +// accidental dependence on such a property. +// +// `absl::BitGen` may be constructed with an optional seed sequence type, +// conforming to [rand.req.seed_seq], which will be mixed with additional +// non-deterministic data. +// +// Example: +// +// // Create an absl::BitGen using an std::seed_seq seed sequence +// std::seed_seq seq{1,2,3}; +// absl::BitGen gen_with_seed(seq); +// +// // Generate an integer value in the closed interval [1,6] +// int die_roll2 = absl::uniform_int_distribution<int>(1, 6)(gen_with_seed); +// +// `absl::BitGen` meets the requirements of the Uniform Random Bit Generator +// (URBG) concept as per the C++17 standard [rand.req.urng] though differs +// slightly with [rand.req.eng].
