/**
 * TextRandomProvider implementations are used by {@link RandomStringGenerator}
 * as a source of randomness.  It is highly recommended that the
 * Apache Commons RNG
 * library be used to provide the random number generation.
 *
 * 

* When using Java 8 or later, TextRandomProvider is a functional interface and * need not be explicitly implemented. For example: *

*
 * {@code
 * UniformRandomProvider rng = RandomSource.create(...);
 * RandomStringGenerator gen = RandomStringGenerator.builder()
 *     .usingRandom(rng::nextInt)
 *     // additional builder calls as needed
 *     .build();
 * }
 * 
* @since 1.1 */ public interface TextRandomProvider { /** * Generates an int value between 0 (inclusive) and the specified value * (exclusive). * @param max Bound on the random number to be returned. Must be positive. * @return a random int value between 0 (inclusive) and n (exclusive). */ int nextInt(int max); }
