note 34873 added to function.rand

And yet another variation on the random password generation. It is a variation on the algorithm from 'admin at gwdn dot com' and performs exactly the same function, though it ought to be even faster since it doesn't have to use regular expression matching. function randomPassword($len = 8) { $pass = ''; $lchar = 0; $char = 0; for($i = 0; $i < $len; $i++) { while($char == $lchar) { $char = rand(48, 109); if($char > 57) $char += 7; if($char > 90) $char += 6; } $pass .= chr($char); $lchar = $char; } return $pass; } Arend jr. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.rand.php Edit Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+34873 Delete Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+34873&report=yes Reject Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+34873&report=yes
