# [−][src]Function rand_core::impls::fill_via_u64_chunks

    pub fn fill_via_u64_chunks(src: &[u64], dest: &mut [u8]) -> (usize, usize)

Implement `fill_bytes` by reading chunks from the output buffer of a block based RNG.

The return values are `(consumed_u64, filled_u8)`. `filled_u8` is the number of filled bytes in `dest`, which may be less than the length of `dest`. `consumed_u64` is the number of words consumed from `src`, which is the same as `filled_u8 / 8` rounded up.

See `fill_via_u32_chunks` for an example.

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g., `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g., `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)

Search multiple things at once by splitting your query with comma (e.g., `str,u8` or `String,struct:Vec,test`)
