I wrote a quantum random number generator package in Go. I'd love your feedback!
For any RNG, the most fundamental function is Read. You can define all other functions in terms of it. In fact, in my opinion, this package could consist of a single Read function and nothing else. If users want convenient methods like Intn or Perm, they can use your package to seed another RNG, such as frand or math/rand. This will also protect against bugs or surprising behavior in your own code. (I notice, for example, that your Int function only produces values up to 65535...)
