Function futures_lite::future::race_with_seed
source · pub fn race_with_seed<T, F1, F2>(
future1: F1,
future2: F2,
seed: u64
) -> Race<F1, F2> ⓘ
Expand description
Race two futures but with a predefined random seed.
This function is identical to race
, but instead of using a random seed from a thread-local
RNG, it allows the user to provide a seed. It is useful for when you already have a source of
randomness available, or if you want to use a fixed seed.
See documentation of the race
function for features and caveats.
§Examples
use futures_lite::future::{self, pending, ready};
// A fixed seed is used, so the result is deterministic.
const SEED: u64 = 0x42;
assert_eq!(future::race_with_seed(ready(1), pending(), SEED).await, 1);
assert_eq!(future::race_with_seed(pending(), ready(2), SEED).await, 2);
// One of the two futures is randomly chosen as the winner.
let res = future::race_with_seed(ready(1), ready(2), SEED).await;
