另一个一行程序，生成一个包含字母和数字的10个字符的随机字符串。它将创建一个具有范围的数组(调整第二个参数以设置大小)，循环遍历该数组并分配一个随机ASCII字符(范围0-9或a-z)，然后内爆该数组以获得一个字符串。

$str = implode('', array_map(function () { return chr(rand(0, 1) ? rand(48, 57) : rand(97, 122)); }, range(0, 9)));

注意:这只适用于PHP 5.3及更高版本

以前的答案会生成不安全或难以输入的密码。

这是安全的，并且提供了用户更有可能实际使用的密码，而不是因为一些薄弱的东西而被丢弃。

如果您在用户可能看到或使用它的地方使用这个随机字符串(例如作为密码生成器)，您可能希望限制用于排除元音的字符集。这样你就不会不小心说脏话，也不会冒犯别人。别笑，这是常有的事。

函数作用域中的$randstring与调用它的作用域不相同。你必须把返回值赋给一个变量。

$randstring = RandomString();
echo $randstring;

或者直接回显返回值:

echo RandomString();

另外，在函数中有一个小错误。在for循环中，您需要使用.=，以便每个字符都被追加到字符串中。通过使用=，您将用每个新字符覆盖它，而不是追加。

$randstring .= $characters[rand(0, strlen($characters))];

下面的函数生成任意长度的伪字符串。

/**
 * Returns random string of a given length.
 */
function get_random_string($length) {
  $pull = [];
  while (count($pull) < $length) {
    $pull = array_merge($pull, range(0, 9), range('a', 'z'), range('A', 'Z'));
  }
  shuffle($pull);
  return substr(implode($pull), 0, $length);
}
