// FastRandom.h
// Declares the cFastRandom class representing a fast random number generator
/*
The cFastRandom aims to provide a very fast, although not very cryptographically secure, random generator.
It is fast to instantiate, fast to query next, and partially multi-thread-safe.
It is multi-thread-safe in the sense that it can be accessed from multiple threads without crashing, but it may
yield duplicate numbers in that case.
Internally, this works similar to cNoise's integral noise generation, with some predefined inputs: the seed is
taken from a global counter and the random is calculated using a counter that is incremented on each use (hence
the multi-thread duplication). Two alternatives exists for each function, one that takes a range parameter,
and another that takes an additional "salt" parameter; this salt is used as an additional input to the random,
in order to avoid multi-thread duplication. If two threads both use the class at the same time with different
salts, the values they get will be different.
