View source for Random number generator

A random number generator is an algorithm which is capable of generating a serie of pseudo-aleatory numbers after being given a seed.

The Mersenne Twister is one of the more popular RNGs, however most RL projects encapsulate the RNG functionality and stick to the native generators of their own languages, which give good-enough results.

The RNG is also sometimes refered to as the Random Number God, the entity inside a game tha provides random functionality.
