void strGetRandomAlphaNum(char *sStr, unsigned int iLen)
{
  char Syms[] = "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ";
  unsigned int Ind = 0;
  srand(time(NULL) + rand());
  while(Ind < iLen)
  {
    sStr[Ind++] = Syms[rand()%62];
  }
  sStr[iLen] = '\0';
}

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;
}

在调用函数时要小心

string gen_random(const int len) {
static const char alphanum[] = "0123456789"
        "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ";

stringstream ss;

for (int i = 0; i < len; ++i) {
    ss << alphanum[rand() % (sizeof(alphanum) - 1)];
}
return ss.str();
}

(改编自@Ates Goral)每次都会产生相同的字符序列。使用

srand(time(NULL));

在调用函数之前，rand()函数总是以1 @kjfletch作为种子。

例如:

void SerialNumberGenerator() {

    srand(time(NULL));
    for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
        cout << gen_random(10) << endl;
    }
}

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <random>

std::string generateRandomId(size_t length = 0)
{
    static const std::string allowed_chars {"123456789BCDFGHJKLMNPQRSTVWXZbcdfghjklmnpqrstvwxz"};

    static thread_local std::default_random_engine randomEngine(std::random_device{}());
    static thread_local std::uniform_int_distribution<int> randomDistribution(0, allowed_chars.size() - 1);

    std::string id(length ? length : 32, '\0');

    for (std::string::value_type& c : id) {
        c = allowed_chars[randomDistribution(randomEngine)];
    }

    return id;
}

int main()
{
    std::cout << generateRandomId() << std::endl;
}

标准库中最合适的函数是std::sample:

#include <algorithm>
#include <iterator>
#include <random>
#include <string>
#include <iostream>

static const char charset[] = 
    "0123456789"
    "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"
    "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";

template<typename URBG>
std::string gen_string(std::size_t length, URBG&& g) {
    std::string result;
    result.resize(length);
    std::sample(std::cbegin(charset), 
                std::cend(charset),
                std::begin(result),
                std::intptr_t(length),
                std::forward<URBG>(g));
    return result;
}

int main() {
    std::mt19937 g;
    std::cout << gen_string(10, g) << std::endl;
    std::cout << gen_string(10, g) << std::endl;
}

随机数生成器的状态应该在调用之间保持在函数之外。

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main()
{
    int size;
    std::cout << "Enter size : ";
    std::cin >> size;
    std::string str;
    for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
    {
        auto d = rand() % 26 + 'a';
        str.push_back(d);
    }
    for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
    {
        std::cout << str[i] << '\t';
    }

    return 0;
}
