What is the canonical way to get data from /dev/random?
Specifically: having opened the file, how do I read the stream?
I'm currently using
union {
float f;
char c[4];
} foo;
foo.f = 0.0;
fscanf(rand_fp,"%4c",foo.c);
which doesn't seem to produce anywhere near "random bytes" as
promised by the man page.
