Functions

func NewPseudoRand

func NewPseudoRand() (*rand.Rand, int64)

NewPseudoRand returns an instance of math/rand.Rand seeded from crypto/rand and its seed so we can easily and cheaply generate unique streams of numbers. The created object is not safe for concurrent access.

func NewPseudoSeed

func NewPseudoSeed() int64

NewPseudoSeed generates a seed from crypto/rand.

func RandBytes

func RandBytes(r *rand.Rand, size int) []byte

RandBytes returns a byte slice of the given length with random data.

func RandIntInRange

func RandIntInRange(r *rand.Rand, min, max int) int

RandIntInRange returns a value in [min, max)

func SeedForTests

func SeedForTests()

SeedForTests seeds the random number generator and prints the seed value used. This value can be specified via an environment variable COCKROACH_RANDOM_SEED=x to reuse the same value later. This function should be called from TestMain; individual tests should not touch the seed of the global random number generator.
