Title: True Random Numbers using RANDOM.ORG
Description: The true random number service provided by the RANDOM.ORG
        website created by Mads Haahr samples atmospheric noise via
        radio tuned to an unused broadcasting frequency together with a
        skew correction algorithm due to John von Neumann.  More
        background is available in the included vignette based on an
        essay by Mads Haahr.  In its current form, the package offers
        functions to retrieve random integers, randomized sequences and
        random strings.
