Like the betterC use case. Nice API.

first example from the docs:

import mir.random.engine.xorshift;
auto gen = Xorshift(1);
auto s = gen.rand!short;
auto n = gen.rand!ulong;

Cool!
I'd only suggest renaming "algorithm" to "range", to better 
reflect what's inside the module.

They are actually algorithms, in exactly the same sense as 
`std.algorithm`; it's just that they include random decisions in 
the generation of their elements.
