     34 
     35 Tests if a value is PRNG-like.

     50 ## Notes
     51 
     52 -   The function is **not** rigorous and only checks for the existence of particular properties which **should** be bound to a seedable pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) function. The function's main use case is for testing that a provided `value` (loosely) conforms to a particular interface.
