createEntropyPool :: IO EntropyPool

Create a new entropy pool with a default size.

While you can create as many entropy pools as you want, the pool can be shared between multiples RNGs.

createEntropyPoolWith :: Int -> [EntropyBackend] -> IO EntropyPool

Create a new entropy pool of a specific size

While you can create as many entropy pools as you want, the pool can be shared between multiples RNGs.

getEntropyFrom :: ByteArray byteArray => EntropyPool -> Int -> IO byteArray

Grab a chunk of entropy from the entropy pool.
