Issue ID: 24591
Summary: [std.random] docs bad at communicating trivail usecase
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: All
URL: http://dlang.org/phobos/
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P3
Component: phobos

https://dlang.org/phobos/std_random.html#.uniform
uniform's docs code communicates using a verbose seed; this is wildly
unnecessary for 95% of cases(and if someones doing cyptro they should read and
understand the whole lib)
pathologically simple code such as:
```d
import std;
void main(){
uniform(0,100).writeln;
}
```
should be front and center
