A de-facto standard crate for random number generation, highly validated by common practice.
Can't really give the "strong" review, since there are several uses of copy_nonoverlapping,
which either deserve a comment with a little explanation or can be safely replaced with
copy_from_slice. Also, noted some suboptimal ergonomic for internal macro, when the size
of type in use is passed explicitly and sometimes unchecked.
However, it does its work well, and to my opinion is a good (just not excellent) example
of what the idiomatic Rust code should be.

Lib.rs has been able to verify that all files in the crate's tarball are in the crate's repository. Please note that this check is still in beta, and absence of this confirmation does not mean that the files don't match.
Crates in the crates.io registry are tarball snapshots uploaded by crates' publishers. The registry is not using crates' git repositories, so there is a possibility that published crates have a misleading repository URL, or contain different code from the code in the repository.
To review the actual code of the crate, it's best to use cargo crev open rand_core. Alternatively, you can download the tarball of rand_core v0.9.0-alpha.2 or view the source online.
