R. David Murray added the comment: It seems reasonable to me, but I'm not the one to sign off on something like this. I've nosied someone who will have an opinion :)
Would doing: mybytes = bytes(random.randint(0, 255) for i in range(size)) be faster enough to be workable? I suppose that might build a list under the covers...maybe preallocating a bytearray and filling it with ints would work better. ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray, rhettinger title: Ability to get random bits from random.Random (as with os.urandom) -> Ability to get random bytes from random.Random (as with os.urandom) _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27096> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
