Generating random gibberish

[hlstriker]

Hi, can someone tell me how to generate about 8-10 chars worth of random gibberish and add it to a string please?

 

Example:

string = coolname;

gibberish = generating(gibberish!);

newstring = string . gibberish;

 

I really don't know how to generate the gibberish so I just made it up in that example.

or if you just want a-z A-Z,

 

<?php
function gibberish($size)
{
    $base = array_merge(range('a','z'), range('A','Z'));
    shuffle($base);
    return join('', array_slice($base, 0, $size));
}

echo gibberish(;
?>

<?
function randomkeys($length){
$pattern = "1234567890abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ";
for($i=0;$i<$length;$i++) $key .= $pattern{rand(0,62)};
return $key;
}
?>
