+#### Deprecated Methods
+
+* bytes - This method would seem to generate an array of random bytes. It does
+not. That's why it's deprecated. Instead it generates a string with random
+byte code values. Plays havoc with encodings too. To get an array of len random
+byte values, try this example:
+
+```ruby
+generator = FibonacciRng.new
+random_bytes = Array.new(len) { generator.byte }
