Syntax

#include <twl/aes.h>

AESResult AES_Rand( void* p, u32 size );

Arguments

p Pointer to the buffer to which to write a random number.
size Size of the buffer to which to write the random number.

Return Values

Returns AES_RESULT_SUCCESS if the random number was generated successfully. Any other return values indicate an error.

Description

Generates a pseudo-random number using the AES algorithm.

For the following reasons, this function is not well-suited for generating standard random numbers. It should only be used for special purposes.

Use the MATH Random Number Generator in order to generate standard random numbers.
