I managed to use this piece of code and it worked.
uint seed = castFrom!long.to!uint(Clock.currStdTime);
auto rng = Random(seed);
I am not exactly sure what the exclamation points stand for in the first line of code. Probably, defining a type to class castFrom
and function to
. But I get the idea that it just cast long to uint since Random
requires an unsigned int.
I assume from this line of code that C casting like (uint)varname
would not work.
