## Usage

```golang

import (

    "math/rand"

    "moul.io/srand"

)

func init() {

    rand.Seed(srand.MustSecure())

}

```

Alternative seeds

```golang

// simple seed initializer

rand.Seed(srand.Fast())

// thread-safe simple seed initializer

go func() { rng := rand.New(rand.NewSource(srand.SafeFast())); fmt.Println(rng.Intn(42)) }()

go func() { rng := rand.New(rand.NewSource(srand.SafeFast())); fmt.Println(rng.Intn(42)) }()

// simple seed initializer overridable by the $SRAND env var

rand.Seed(srand.Overridable("SRAND"))

// cryptographically secure initializer

rand.Seed(srand.MustSecure())

```

## Install

```console

$ go get -u moul.io/srand

```
