I use the word "random" for the data generated by this library. Thought, all of this is mathematically false. So do not use this for any serious purpose.

To build the digits calculator and compute:
from piran import build, compute
build() # pi.c -> pi.so
compute(10000) # Ten thousand digits!
Note that this is only needed once. Ten thousand digits are usually computed in less than a second. Now we can really use the library:
from piran import Random
r = Random() # Creates a cursor file
for i in range(10):
print("unsigned int:", r.uint(10), "\nsigned int:", r.sint(-10, 10))
r.close() # Deletes the cursor file
I'm actually not very good at math. But we all know that:
Pi is an irrationnal number. Thus, its decimals never repeat themselves.
So I worked on the (mathematically false) assumption that if pi's decimals never repeat themselves, then these decimals can be considered "random".
