Alias std.random.Random

The "default", "favorite", "suggested" random number generator type on the current platform. It is an alias for one of the previously-defined generators. You may want to use it if (1) you need to generate some nice random numbers, and (2) you don't care for the minutiae of the method being used.

alias Random = MersenneTwisterEngine!(uint,32L,624L,397L,31L,2567483615,11L,4294967295,7L,2636928640,15L,4022730752,18L,1812433253);
