一些更简单和更基本的东西，如果你想让你的字符串包含任何可打印的字符:

#include <time.h>   // we'll use time for the seed
#include <string.h> // this is for strcpy

void randomString(int size, char* output) // pass the destination size and the destination itself
{
    srand(time(NULL)); // seed with time

    char src[size];
    size = rand() % size; // this randomises the size (optional)

    src[size] = '\0'; // start with the end of the string...

    // ...and work your way backwards
    while(--size > -1)
        src[size] = (rand() % 94) + 32; // generate a string ranging from the space character to ~ (tilde)

    strcpy(output, src); // store the random string
}

我刚刚测试了这个，它工作得很好，不需要查找表。Rand_alnum()在某种程度上强制输出字母数字，但因为它从可能的256个字符中选择62个，所以这不是什么大问题。

#include <cstdlib>   // for rand()
#include <cctype>    // for isalnum()   
#include <algorithm> // for back_inserter
#include <string>

char 
rand_alnum()
{
    char c;
    while (!std::isalnum(c = static_cast<char>(std::rand())))
        ;
    return c;
}


std::string 
rand_alnum_str (std::string::size_type sz)
{
    std::string s;
    s.reserve  (sz);
    generate_n (std::back_inserter(s), sz, rand_alnum);
    return s;
}

//C++ Simple Code
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
int main() {
vector<char> alphanum =
    {'0','1','2','3','4',
'5','6','7','8','9',
'A','B','C','D','E','F',
'G','H','I','J','K',
'L','M','N','O','P',
'Q','R','S','T','U',
'V','W','X','Y','Z',
'a','b','c','d','e','f',
'g','h','i','j','k',
'l','m','n','o','p',
'q','r','s','t','u',
'v','w','x','y','z'
};
string s="";
int len=5;
srand(time(0)); 
for (int i = 0; i <len; i++) {
    int t=alphanum.size()-1;
    int idx=rand()%t;
    s+= alphanum[idx];
}
cout<<s<<" ";
return 0;
}

Qt使用示例:

QString random_string(int length=32, QString allow_symbols=QString("abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789")) {
    QString result;
    qsrand(QTime::currentTime().msec());
    for (int i = 0; i < length; ++i) {            
        result.append(allow_symbols.at(qrand() % (allow_symbols.length())));
    }
    return result;
}

我的2p解:

#include <random>
#include <string>

std::string random_string(std::string::size_type length)
{
    static auto& chrs = "0123456789"
        "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
        "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ";

    thread_local static std::mt19937 rg{std::random_device{}()};
    thread_local static std::uniform_int_distribution<std::string::size_type> pick(0, sizeof(chrs) - 2);

    std::string s;

    s.reserve(length);

    while(length--)
        s += chrs[pick(rg)];

    return s;
}

这里有一个有趣的单句。需要ASCII。

void gen_random(char *s, int l) {
    for (int c; c=rand()%62, *s++ = (c+"07="[(c+16)/26])*(l-->0););
}
