Is this up to the required standard? https://wiki.php.net/rfc/rng_extension I acknowledge that the previous RFC may have been difficult to discuss. If the problem has been solved, I would like to make another ML-wide announcement and wait for two weeks from there. I added PCG64 because according to the RNG experts, there seems to be a mild conflict between Xorshiro256 and PCG64. Also, as mentioned in the RFC, Rust and NumPy also implement PCG64. In order to verify the feasibility of PCG64, we created a PoC in C. So far, it seems to work fine. https://github.com/zeriyoshi/pcg64_example Regards, Go Kudo
