=head1 DESCRIPTION
into B<buf>. An error occurs if the PRNG has not been seeded with
enough randomness to ensure an unpredictable byte sequence.
+RAND_pseudo_bytes() has been deprecated. Users should use RAND_bytes() instead.
RAND_pseudo_bytes() puts B<num> pseudo-random bytes into B<buf>.
Pseudo-random byte sequences generated by RAND_pseudo_bytes() will be
unique if they are of sufficient length, but are not necessarily
certain purposes in cryptographic protocols, but usually not for key
generation etc.
+The contents of B<buf> is mixed into the entropy pool before retrieving
+the new pseudo-random bytes unless disabled at compile time (see FAQ).

RAND_bytes() returns 1 on success, 0 otherwise. The error code can be
