// ----- Sampling distributions -----

/// Sample a `u8`, uniformly distributed over ASCII letters and numbers:
/// a-z, A-Z and 0-9.
///
/// # Example
///
/// ```
/// use rand::{Rng, thread_rng};
/// use rand::distributions::Alphanumeric;
///
/// let mut rng = thread_rng();
/// let chars: String = (0..7).map(|_| rng.sample(Alphanumeric) as char).collect();
/// println!("Random chars: {}", chars);
/// ```
///
/// The [`DistString`] trait provides an easier method of generating
/// a random `String`, and offers more efficient allocation:
/// ```
/// use rand::distributions::{Alphanumeric, DistString};
/// let string = Alphanumeric.sample_string(&mut rand::thread_rng(), 16);
/// println!("Random string: {}", string);
/// ```
///
/// # Passwords
///
/// Users sometimes ask whether it is safe to use a string of random characters
/// as a password. In principle, all RNGs in Rand implementing `CryptoRng` are
/// suitable as a source of randomness for generating passwords (if they are
/// properly seeded), but it is more conservative to only use randomness
/// directly from the operating system via the `getrandom` crate, or the
/// corresponding bindings of a crypto library.
///
/// When generating passwords or keys, it is important to consider the threat
/// model and in some cases the memorability of the password. This is out of
/// scope of the Rand project, and therefore we defer to the following
/// references:
///
/// - [Wikipedia article on Password Strength](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_strength)
