12 random_string random_string_from rand irand);
13
14 $octets = random_bytes(45);

16 $base64_string = random_bytes_b64(45);
17 $base64url_string = random_bytes_b64u(45);
18 $alphanumeric_string = random_string(30);
19 $string = random_string_from('ACGT', 64);
20 $floating_point_number_0_to_1 = rand;
21 $floating_point_number_0_to_88 = rand(88);

24 ### OO interface:

26
27 $prng = Crypt::PRNG::Fortuna->new;
28 #or
29 $prng = Crypt::PRNG::Fortuna->new("some data used for seeding PRNG");
