9//! Sequence-related functionality
10//!
11//! This module provides:
12//!
13//! *   [`IndexedRandom`] for sampling slices and other indexable lists
14//! *   [`IndexedMutRandom`] for sampling slices and other mutably indexable lists
15//! *   [`SliceRandom`] for mutating slices
16//! *   [`IteratorRandom`] for sampling iterators
17//! *   [`index::sample`] low-level API to choose multiple indices from
18//!     `0..length`
19//!
20//! Also see:
21//!
22//! *   [`crate::distr::weighted::WeightedIndex`] distribution which provides
23//!     weighted index sampling.
24//!
25//! In order to make results reproducible across 32-64 bit architectures, all
26//! `usize` indices are sampled as a `u32` where possible (also providing a
27//! small performance boost in some cases).
