TRandom will fall back on Free Pascal's [Random](http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/system/random.html "Random") function which uses the [Mersenne Twister](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mersenne_Twister "Mersenne Twister") algorithm to get random bytes. TRandom will fall back on reading from /dev/urandom, then /dev/random, and finally Free Pascal's [Random](http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/system/random.html "Random") function which uses the [Mersenne Twister](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mersenne_Twister "Mersenne Twister") algorithm to get random bytes.
