What&#39;s wrong with the System.Random.StdGen implementation of RandomGen?[1] (I&#39;m not sure if it&#39;s cryptographically safe)<br><br>Someone (Cale IIRC) has already implemented a Rand monad[2] which is like a state monad but it keeps a RandomGen instead.<br>
<br>As an aside, there is no such Arrow or ArrowTransormer, but I intend to make one as soon as I am able. Useful for Arrowised FRP.<br><br>[1] <a href="http://hackage.haskell.org/package/random-1.0.0.2">http://hackage.haskell.org/package/random-1.0.0.2</a><br>
