Changes

0.1.3.2 (2019-06-06)

  • Relax upper bound on base to <5.
  • Include GHC-8.6.5 into test-matrix.

0.1.3.1 (2018-03-18)

  • Put dependency on pcg-random behind a cabal flag, which is on by default. This enables builds stackage nightly.

0.1.3 (2018-03-17)

  • Support for GHC-8.4.1

0.1.2

  • Add support for PCG as PRNG in addition to MWC.

    The module Data.ByteString.Random.PCG uses PCG. The module Data.ByteString.Random.MWC uses MWC. The module Data.ByteString.Random uses MWC for backward compatibility.

  • Support usage of custom PRNGs through the type class RandomWords and the function generate in the module Data.ByteString.Random.Internal.

  • Add some benchmark results to package description

0.1.1

  • Support for GHC-8.2.1 and Cabal-2.0

0.1.0

  • In the implementation of random, use withSystemGen that seeds the PRNG from the system randomness source.

0.0.1

  • First public release
