CSPRNG Flask API

Instruction for our API documentation, this Flask API provides cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generation (CSPRNG) through a simple HTTP interface. The API generates random numbers using OS-specific CSPRNG mechanisms and can be easily extended or integrated into various applications. The project can also be run in Java with either RSA\GUI.java or CSPRNG\RNGUI.java.
