Synopsis
#include <flint/fmpz.h>void fmpz_randbits_unsigned(fmpz_t f, flint_rand_t state, flint_bitcnt_t bits)sourcevoid fmpz_randbits(fmpz_t f, flint_rand_t state, flint_bitcnt_t bits)sourceSet f to a uniformly random integer with exactly bits bits (its top bit set), nonnegative for the unsigned version and with a random sign otherwise. For bits = 0 the result is 0.
