Random Strings

Option to produce random string values.

Strings will include the following types of characters:

 

AN

Alpha Numeric

Letters and Numbers

 

ANUC

Alpha Numeric

Letters Upper Case

 

ANLC

Alpha Numeric

Letters Lower Case

 

ANX

Alpha Numeric Extended

Letters, Numbers and various Printing Characters

 

AL

Letters only.

Both upper and lower case.

 

LC

Letters only.

Lower case only.

 

UC

Letters only.

Upper case only.

 

DEC

Decimal numbers.

0 thru 9

 

HEX

Hexadecimal numbers.

0 thru 9

A thru F

 

 

Each generated random string value will consist of a random range of substrings between the Minimum Number of Strings and the Maximum Number of Strings. Each substring will be somewhere between the Minimum Length and the Maximum Length.

(Optional)

Use one of the Regex Pattern and Regex Replacement drop-down list values if you wish to format the random output.5

Example:

Simulate a product key string using random values.

Select UC

Minimum Number of Strings = 5

Maximum Number of Strings = 5

Minimum Length = 4

Maximum Length = 4

Regex Pattern = (\w{4})(\w{4})(\w{4})(\w{4})(\w{4})

Regex Replacement = $1-$2-$3-$4-$5

 

Output will look something like this:

Random Syllable Strings

Option to generate strings consisting of random syllables.

 

UCLC

First letter of each syllable is upper case.

The rest of the letters are lower case.

 

LC

Syllable consists of lower case letters only.

 

UC

Syllable consists of upper case letters only.

 

 

Each generated random string value will consist of a random range of syllable substrings between the Minimum Number of Strings and the Maximum Number of Strings. Each syllable substring will be somewhere between the Minimum Length Each String and the Maximum Length Each String.

 

Repeating Strings

Option to produce strings consisting of repeating characters or repeating phrases.

Repeat Random Character

Select type of character to repeat from these options:

AN

Alpha Numeric

Letters and Numbers

 

ANUC

Alpha Numeric

Letters Upper Case

 

ANLC

Alpha Numeric

Letters Lower Case

 

ANX

Alpha Numeric Extended

Letters, Numbers and various Printing Characters

 

AL

Letters only.

Both upper and lower case.

 

LC

Letters only.

Lower case only.

 

UC

Letters only.

Upper case only.

 

DEC

Decimal numbers.

0 thru 9

 

HEX

Hexadecimal numbers.

0 thru 9

A thru F

 

You can specify the Minimum Output Length and Maximum Output Length which will determine how many times the character is repeated within each substring in the generated string.

Specify the Minimum Number of Outputs and Maximum Number of Outputs to determine how many random substrings are generated each time a Repeating Strings/Repeat Random Character random value is produced.

Output Example:

Repeated character = UC

Minimum Output Length = 2

Maximum Output Length = 4

Minimum Number of Outputs = 3

Maximum Number of Outputs = 5

Repeat Text

Option to repeat the text you input. The number of repetitions is governed by the Minimum Number of Outputs and Maximum Number of Outputs values.

Output Example:

Repeated Text = No comment …

Minimum Number of Outputs = 2

Maximum Number of Outputs = 3
