// Internally uses the Fortuna cryptographically secure random number generation algorithm
// auto-seeded from a secure source of entropy that depends on the OS.

// Sample Output:

// Uppercase Hex: 1BA0E87915C3B429
// Lowercase Hex: 1e1638a1c7996c58
// Base64: 1lV0I/su5lg=
// Base64Url: Zq7DU0nukLk
// Base58: foUVWUjAT6e
// Base32: LHV5RV4HRCLW2===
// Decimal List: 168,55,214,82,93,154,191,164
