/*
* Passkey is a 6 digits code (1'000'000 possibilities).
* It is important every possible value has an equal probability
* of getting generated. Simply applying a modulo creates a bias
* since 2^32 is not a multiple of 1'000'000.
* To prevent that, we can reject values greater than 999'999.
*
* Rejecting values would happen a lot since 2^32-1 is way greater
* than 1'000'000. An optimisation is to use a multiple of 1'000'000.
* The greatest multiple of 1'000'000 lesser than 2^32-1 is
* 4'294'000'000.
*
* Great explanation at:
