Description
As a user I would like to validate the functionality of the random number generator using a statistical test method such as diehard so that I can be confident the library is adequately generating random input for secret values.
different platforms handle random number generation differently and as a safety feature we should add statistical tests that can verify the functionality of our internal random number process on a variety of hardware, operating systems, and compilers.
