Hi Ariel,
This sounds a little bit like some homework assignment :P but here goes.
This method will make a random string of a given length out of small and
capital letters using ascii A-Z, a-z,
private string GenerateString( int length)
{
Random rand = new Random();
string randomString = "";
for(int i = 0; i < length; i++)
{
int small = rand.Next(2);
int letter = rand.Next(26);
if(small == 0)
letter += 65;
else
letter += 97;
randomString += Convert.ToChar( letter);
}
return randomString;
}
Happy coding!

Hi,
You could use the random generator, and then use a StringBuilder to append
them , all you have to do is make sure you generate printables characters.

If your objective is to get something irregular and/or unique you could use
System.Guid.New Guid.ToString() This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

This is intended to be less predicable/have fewer correlations than
the default Mersenne Twister or Wichmann-Hill generators. Comments
are appreciated.

I'm trying to synchronize a network app that uses random numbers
generated by System.Random. Rather than pass every randomly generated
number, I just pass the seed. I'm seeing a result that leads me to
believe that a seeded random number is still slightly random. I need
a predictable random number.
Here's my results

I found a program that is supposed to do it, but it doesn't seem to work.
It should put a blue and yellow box on the page with "This is a test" as
part of the picture. But what I get is a broken Gif.
The other problem is that I can't view the source???? The view source is
disabled for this page. What causes this?

Hey guys
Using Random(), how random is it, is it possible to be predicted? I have a
requirement for a very good random number generator. I was doing something
such as:
Random randomSeed = new Random((int)_seedTimer.ElapsedTicks);
_random = new Random(randomSeed.Next(0,99999999));
return random.Next(min, max);

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
