               the value defaults to the largest value that
               can be represented.

    The randomness is generated by the specified engine (or
    the default engine if one is not specified). The result
    is cryptographically secure only when the engine passed
    into the function is cryptographically secure.

    @note The range is always a closed interval, so calling
          rand_int(-5, 15) can return any integer in the
          closed interval [-5, 15]; similarly, calling
          rand_int(7) can return any integer in the closed
          interval [0, 7].
