//create a function to choose a single character at random from a defined set of characters function getRandomChar() { $charSet = "123456789abcdefghijklmnpqrstuvwxyz"; //The character set u wanna build passwords from $rn = rand (0, strlen ($charSet)); //Choose a random position in character set return substr ($charSet, $rn, 1); //Return the character at that position } //create function to choose a given length password by using getRandomChar() function getPassword($length) { $pass = ""; //make pass an empty string //loop for no of time specified by length of password for ($idx = 0; $idx < $length; $idx++) { $pass .= getRandomChar(); //add a random character to pass } return $pass; } //Usage example $nuPassword = getPassword(6); //returns a password that is 6 characters long |

Now this is the code without the comments function getRandomChar() { $charSet = "123456789abcdefghijklmnpqrstuvwxyz"; $rn = rand (0, strlen ($charSet)); return substr ($charSet, $rn, 1); } function getPassword($length) { $pass = ""; for ($idx = 0; $idx < $length; $idx++) { $pass .= getRandomChar(); } return $pass; } |
