10 ### Functional interface:
11 use Crypt::PRNG::RC4 qw(random_bytes random_bytes_hex random_bytes_b64 random_string random_string_from rand irand);
12
13 $octets = random_bytes(45);
14 $hex_string = random_bytes_hex(45);
15 $base64_string = random_bytes_b64(45);
16 $base64url_string = random_bytes_b64u(45);
17 $alphanumeric_string = random_string(30);
18 $string = random_string_from('ACGT', 64);
19 $floating_point_number_0_to_1 = rand;
20 $floating_point_number_0_to_88 = rand(88);
21 $unsigned_32bit_int = irand;
22
23 ### OO interface:
24 use Crypt::PRNG::RC4;
25
26 $prng = Crypt::PRNG::RC4->new;
27 #or
28 $prng = Crypt::PRNG::RC4->new("some data used for seeding PRNG");
29
30 $octets = $prng->bytes(45);
31 $hex_string = $prng->bytes_hex(45);
32 $base64_string = $prng->bytes_b64(45);
33 $base64url_string = $prng->bytes_b64u(45);
34 $alphanumeric_string = $prng->string(30);
35 $string = $prng->string_from('ACGT', 64);
36 $floating_point_number_0_to_1 = rand;
37 $floating_point_number_0_to_88 = rand(88);
38 $unsigned_32bit_int = irand;
