Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install libghc-tf-random-doc on Kali Linux.

What is libghc-tf-random-doc

libghc-tf-random-doc is:

This package contains an implementation of a high-quality splittable pseudorandom number generator. The generator is based on a cryptographic hash function built on top of the ThreeFish block cipher. See the paper Splittable Pseudorandom Number Generators Using Cryptographic Hashing by Claessen, Pa?ka for details and the rationale of the design.

The package provides the following:

  • A splittable PRNG that implements the standard System.Random.RandomGen class.

  • The generator also implements an alternative version of the System.Random.TF.Gen.RandomGen class (exported from System.Random.TF.Gen), which requires the generator to return pseudorandom integers from the full 32-bit range, and contains an n-way split function.

  • An alternative version of the Random class is provided, which is linked to the new RandomGen class, together with Random instances for some integral types.

  • Two functions for initialising the generator with a non-deterministic seed: one using the system time, and one using the /dev/urandom UNIX special file.

Please note that even though the generator provides very high-quality pseudorandom numbers, it has not been designed with cryptographic applications in mind.

This package provides the documentation for a library for the Haskell programming language. See http://www.haskell.org/ for more information on Haskell.

There are three methods to install libghc-tf-random-doc on Kali Linux. We can use apt-get, apt and aptitude. In the following sections we will describe each method. You can choose one of them.

Install libghc-tf-random-doc Using apt-get

Update apt database with apt-get using the following command.

sudo apt-get update

After updating apt database, We can install libghc-tf-random-doc using apt-get by running the following command:

sudo apt-get -y install libghc-tf-random-doc

Install libghc-tf-random-doc Using apt

Update apt database with apt using the following command.

sudo apt update

After updating apt database, We can install libghc-tf-random-doc using apt by running the following command:

sudo apt -y install libghc-tf-random-doc

Install libghc-tf-random-doc Using aptitude

If you want to follow this method, you might need to install aptitude on Kali Linux first since aptitude is usually not installed by default on Kali Linux. Update apt database with aptitude using the following command.
