BN_rand() generates a cryptographically strong pseudo-random number of

BN_rand_ex() generate a cryptographically strong pseudo-random

may be NULL in which case the default library context is used.

If B<bits> is less than zero, or too small to

accommodate the requirements specified by the B<top> and B<bottom>

parameters, an error is returned.
