`rhai-rand` is a [Rhai] package to provide random number generation using the [`rand`] crate.

[Rhai] is an embedded scripting language and evaluation engine for Rust that gives a safe and easy way
to add scripting to any application.

Usage
-----

### `Cargo.toml`

```toml
[dependencies]
rhai-rand = "0.1"
```

### [Rhai] script

```js
// Create random boolean
let decision = rand_bool();

if decision {
// Create random number
let random_value = rand();
print(`Random number = ${random_value}`);
} else {
print("Fixed number = 42");
}

// Create array
let a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];

// Shuffle it!
a.shuffle();

// Now the array is shuffled randomly!
print(a);

// Sample a random value from the array
print(a.sample());

// Or sample multiple values
print(a.sample(3));
```

### Rust source

```rust
// packages::Package implements `as_shared_module`
// which we need to register the RandomPackage
use rhai::{Engine, packages::Package};
use rhai_rand::RandomPackage;

// Create Rhai scripting engine
let mut engine = Engine::new();

// Create random number package and add the package into the engine
engine.register_global_module(RandomPackage::new().as_shared_module());

// Print 10 random numbers, each of which between 0-99!
for _ in 0..10 {
let value = engine.eval::("(rand() % 100).abs()")?;

println!("Random number = {}", value);
}
```
