TRULYRANDOM(1)

NAME
TrulyRandom - Perl interface to a truly random number generator function

SYNOPSIS
    use Math::TrulyRandom;
    $random = truly_random_value();

DESCRIPTION
The TrulyRandom module provides an ability to generate truly random numbers from within Perl programs. The source of the randomness is from interrupt timing discrepancies.

EXAMPLE
    $random = truly_random_value();

BUGS
The random numbers take a long time (in computer terms) to generate, so are only really useful for seeding pseudo random sequence generators.
