Just another random password generator. Assembles passwords such as these: N_v85kA2_s 8k4jz94_H0 30824n6VcN useful for... whatever. ;) $underscores holds the maximum allowed number of underscores. Default is two. The function is programmed to not add an underscore at the beginning or end of the password, right after another underscore, or if the maximum # has already been used. $length holds the length you want the password to be. Default is 10 characters long. <?php function alphanumericPass() { // Do not modify anything below here $underscores = 2; // Maximum number of underscores allowed in password $length = 10; // Length of password $p =""; for ($i=0;$i<$length;$i++) { $c = mt_rand(1,7); switch ($c) { case ($c<=2): // Add a number $p .= mt_rand(0,9); break; case ($c<=4): // Add an uppercase letter $p .= chr(mt_rand(65,90)); break; case ($c<=6): // Add a lowercase letter $p .= chr(mt_rand(97,122)); break; case 7: $len = strlen($p); if ($underscores>0&&$len>0&&$len<9&&$p[$len-1]!="_") { $p .= "_"; $underscores--; } else { $i--; continue; } break; } } return $p; } ?> ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 69.142.233.248 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mt-rand.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/92711 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92711/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92711/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92711/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92711/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92711/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92711/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92711 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/92711 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
