The Haskell Standard Library – Random Number Generation
This library provides a basic interface for (splittable) random number generators.
The API documentation can be found here:
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/random/docs/System-Random.html
A module supplying this interface is required for Haskell 98 (but not Haskell 2010). An older [version] (http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries/haskell98/Random.html) of this library is included with GHC in the haskell98 package. This newer version, with compatible api, is included in the [Haskell Platform] (http://www.haskell.org/platform/contents.html).
Please report bugs in the Github [issue tracker] (https://github.com/haskell/random/issues) (no longer in the GHC trac).
