// `absl::SeedSeq` constructs a seed sequence according to [rand.req.seedseq]
// for use within bit generators. `absl::SeedSeq`, unlike `std::seed_seq`
// additionally salts the generated seeds with extra implementation-defined
// entropy. For that reason, you can use `absl::SeedSeq` in combination with
// standard library bit generators (e.g. `std::mt19937`) to introduce
// non-determinism in your seeds.
//
// Example:
//
//   absl::SeedSeq my_seed_seq({a, b, c});
//   std::mt19937 my_bitgen(my_seed_seq);
//

// absl::CreateSeedSeqFrom(bitgen*)
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// Constructs a seed sequence conforming to [rand.req.seedseq] using variates
// produced by a provided bit generator.
//
// You should generally avoid direct construction of seed sequences, but
// use-cases for reuse of a seed sequence to construct identical bit generators
// may be helpful (eg. replaying a simulation whose state is derived from bit
// generator values).
//
// If bitgen == nullptr, then behavior is undefined.
//
// Example:
//
//   absl::BitGen my_bitgen;
//   auto seed_seq = absl::CreateSeedSeqFrom(&my_bitgen);
//   absl::BitGen new_engine(seed_seq); // derived from my_bitgen, but not
//                                      // correlated.
