Method Summary
static void	nextBytes(byte[] buffer) Completely fills the designated `buffer` with random data generated by the underlying singleton.
static void	nextBytes(byte[] buffer, int offset, int length) Fills the designated `buffer`, starting from byte at position `offset` with, at most, `length` bytes of random data generated by the underlying singleton.

Method Detail

nextBytes

public static void nextBytes(byte[] buffer)

Completely fills the designated buffer with random data generated by the underlying singleton.

Parameters: buffer the place holder of random bytes generated by this PRNG singleton. On output, the contents of buffer are replaced with pseudo-random data, iff the buffer size is not zero.

nextBytes

public static void nextBytes(byte[] buffer, int offset, int length)

Fills the designated buffer, starting from byte at position offset with, at most, length bytes of random data generated by the underlying singleton.
