# Random Recipes

Recipes to generate random instances of various types, beyond the scope of [random](https://docs.python.org/3/library/random.html).

Python's [random](https://docs.python.org/3/library/random.html) implements generators for pseudo-random bytes, integers, and sequences.
In [random-recipes](https://github.com/ipear3/random-recipes) we collect additional functions to generate random instances of common types that may be useful.

## Recipes

| Type                                                                                  | Function          |
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------|
| [decimal.Decimal](https://docs.python.org/3/library/decimal.html)                     | `random_decimal`  |
| [datetime.date](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#date-objects)         | `random_date`     |
| [datetime.datetime](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime-objects) | `random_datetime` |

## Development

`random-recipes` is developed by [@ipear3](https://github.com/ipear3).
This is a low-commitment project for practicing Python packaging, but it does try to contribute something of value.
Suggestions, comments, and contributions are welcome.

This project draws inspiration from [more-itertools](https://github.com/more-itertools/more-itertools), a well-designed, simple extension to a Python's [itertools](https://docs.python.org/3/library/itertools.html).
