44 * Type and input logic checks
46 * If you pass it a float in the range (~PHP_INT_MAX, PHP_INT_MAX)
47 * (non-inclusive), it will sanely cast it to an int. If you it's equal to
48 * ~PHP_INT_MAX or PHP_INT_MAX, we let it fail as not an integer. Floats

65 'random_int(): $max must be an integer'
70 * Now that we've verified our weak typing system has given us an integer,
71 * let's validate the logic then we can move forward with generating random
72 * integers along a given range.
76 'Minimum value must be less than or equal to the maximum value'
85 * Initialize variables to 0
88 * $bytes => the number of random bytes we need
89 * $mask => an integer bitmask (for use with the &) operator
90 * so we can minimize the number of discards
92 $attempts = $bits = $bytes = $mask = $valueShift = 0;
95 * At this point, $range is a positive number greater than 0. It might
96 * overflow, however, if $max - $min > PHP_INT_MAX. PHP will cast it to
97 * a float and we will lose some precision.
102 * Test for integer overflow:
104 if (!is_int($range)) {
107 * Still safely calculate wider ranges.

132 $mask = $mask << 1 | 1;
139 * Now that we have our parameters set up, let's begin generating
140 * random integers until one falls between $min and $max
144 * The rejection probability is at most 0.5, so this corresponds
145 * to a failure probability of 2^-128 for a working RNG

149 'random_int: RNG is broken - too many rejections'
154 * Let's grab the necessary number of random bytes
156 $randomByteString = random_bytes($bytes);
159 * Let's turn $randomByteString into an integer
161 * This uses bitwise operators (<< and |) to build an integer
162 * out of the values extracted from ord()
164 * Example: [9F] | [6D] | [32] | [0C] =>
165 * 159 + 27904 + 3276800 + 201326592 =>
169 for ($i = 0; $i < $bytes; ++$i) {
170 $val |= ord($randomByteString[$i]) << ($i * 8);
181 * If $val overflows to a floating point number,
182 * ... or is larger than $max,
183 * ... or smaller than $min,
