AnuQRandom.NET

A .NET 6 library for accessing the ANU quantum random number generator API located at: https://quantumnumbers.anu.edu.au

How to use

Add using AnuQRandom; then:

var client = new NewAnuClient("[API KEY]");
var data = await client.RequestAsync();

if (data.Success)
{
	foreach (var number in data.Data)
		Console.WriteLine(number);
}

To use the old API create an instance of the OldAnuClient class instead.

Use properties to set custom values for Block Size, Array Length and Data Type:

var client = new OldAnuClient
{
	DataType = RequestedDataType.hex16,
	BlockSize = 0x10,
	ArrayLength = 0x22
};

or use fluent style configuration:

var data = await client.RequestAsync(new AnuRequestEntity().WithDataType(RequestedDataType.hex16)
							   .WithBlockSize(0xA)
							   .WithArrayLength(0x32));

Create an instance of the WebAnuClient class to access website - provided functionality that is not a part of the JSON API:

var client = new WebAnuClient();

// Save a random 256 x 256 scatter plot image in the current application working directory.

await client.GetScatterPlotImageAsync("scatter_plot.png");

var hexBlock = await client.GetHexadecimalBlockAsync();
var binBlock = await client.GetBinaryBlockAsync();
var alpBlock = await client.GetAlphanumericBlockAsync();

Console.WriteLine("Hexadecimal block:\n\n");
Console.WriteLine(hexBlock);

Console.WriteLine("\n\nBinary block:\n\n");
Console.WriteLine(binBlock);

Console.WriteLine("\n\nAlphanumeric block:\n\n");
Console.WriteLine(alpBlock);
