# = Secure random number generator interface.
#
# This library is an interface for secure random number generator which is
# suitable for generating session key in HTTP cookies, etc.
#
# It supports following secure random number generators.
#
# * openssl
# * /dev/urandom
#
# == Example
#
# # random hexadecimal string.
# p SecureRandom.hex(10) #=> "52750b30ffbc7de3b362"
# p SecureRandom.hex(10) #=> "92b15d6c8dc4beb5f559"
# p SecureRandom.hex(11) #=> "6aca1b5c58e4863e6b81b8"
# p SecureRandom.hex(12) #=> "94b2fff3e7fd9b9c391a2306"
# p SecureRandom.hex(13) #=> "39b290146bea6ce975c37cfc23"
# ...
#
# # random base64 string.
# p SecureRandom.base64(10) #=> "EcmTPZwWRAozdA=="
# p SecureRandom.base64(10) #=> "9b0nsevdwNuM/w=="
# p SecureRandom.base64(10) #=> "KO1nIU+p9DKxGg=="
# p SecureRandom.base64(11) #=> "l7XEiFja+8EKEtY="
# p SecureRandom.base64(12) #=> "7kJSM/MzBJI+75j8"
# p SecureRandom.base64(13) #=> "vKLJ0tXBHqQOuIcSIg=="
# ...
#
# # random binary string.
# p SecureRandom.random_bytes(10) #=> "\016\t{\370g\310pbr\301"
# p SecureRandom.random_bytes(10) #=> "\323U\030TO\234\357\020\a\337"
