尝试将两部分结合起来:独特(序列、计数器或日期)和随机

public class RandomStringGenerator
{
    public static string Gen()
    {
        return ConvertToBase(DateTime.UtcNow.ToFileTimeUtc()) + GenRandomStrings(5); //keep length fixed at least of one part
    }

    private static string GenRandomStrings(int strLen)
    {
        var result = string.Empty;

        using (var gen = new RNGCryptoServiceProvider())
        {
            var data = new byte[1];

            while (result.Length < strLen)
            {
                gen.GetNonZeroBytes(data);
                int code = data[0];
                if (code > 48 && code < 57 || // 0-9
                    code > 65 && code < 90 || // A-Z
                    code > 97 && code < 122   // a-z
                )
                {
                    result += Convert.ToChar(code);
                }
            }

            return result;
        }
    }

    private static string ConvertToBase(long num, int nbase = 36)
    {
        const string chars = "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"; //if you wish to make the algorithm more secure - change order of letter here

        // check if we can convert to another base
        if (nbase < 2 || nbase > chars.Length)
            return null;

        int r;
        var newNumber = string.Empty;

        // in r we have the offset of the char that was converted to the new base
        while (num >= nbase)
        {
            r = (int)(num % nbase);
            newNumber = chars[r] + newNumber;
            num = num / nbase;
        }
        // the last number to convert
        newNumber = chars[(int)num] + newNumber;

        return newNumber;
    }
}

测试:

    [Test]
    public void Generator_Should_BeUnigue1()
    {
        //Given
        var loop = Enumerable.Range(0, 1000);
        //When
        var str = loop.Select(x=> RandomStringGenerator.Gen());
        //Then
        var distinct = str.Distinct();
        Assert.AreEqual(loop.Count(),distinct.Count()); // Or Assert.IsTrue(distinct.Count() < 0.95 * loop.Count())
    }

 public static string RandomString(int length)
    {
        const string chars = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789";
        var random = new Random();
        return new string(Enumerable.Repeat(chars, length).Select(s => s[random.Next(s.Length)]).ToArray());
    }

我们也使用自定义字符串随机，但我们实现的是字符串的帮助器，所以它提供了一些灵活性…

public static string Random(this string chars, int length = 8)
{
    var randomString = new StringBuilder();
    var random = new Random();

    for (int i = 0; i < length; i++)
        randomString.Append(chars[random.Next(chars.Length)]);

    return randomString.ToString();
}

使用

var random = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ".Random();

or

var random = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789".Random(16);

我听说LINQ是新的黑色，所以下面是我使用LINQ的尝试:

private static Random random = new Random();

public static string RandomString(int length)
{
    const string chars = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789";
    return new string(Enumerable.Repeat(chars, length)
        .Select(s => s[random.Next(s.Length)]).ToArray());
}

(注意:Random类的使用使得它不适用于任何与安全性相关的事情，比如创建密码或令牌。如果你需要强随机数生成器，请使用RNGCryptoServiceProvider类。)

对于加密和非加密，有效地:

public static string GenerateRandomString(int length, string charset = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890") =>
    new Random().GenerateRandomString(length, charset);

public static string GenerateRandomString(this Random random, int length, string charset = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890") =>
    RandomString(random.NextBytes, length, charset.ToCharArray());

public static string GenerateRandomCryptoString(int length, string charset = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890")
{
    using (var crypto = new System.Security.Cryptography.RNGCryptoServiceProvider())
        return crypto.GenerateRandomCryptoString(length, charset);
}

public static string GenerateRandomCryptoString(this RNGCryptoServiceProvider random, int length, string charset = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890") => 
    RandomString(random.GetBytes, length, charset.ToCharArray());

private static string RandomString(Action<byte[]> fillRandomBuffer, int length, char[] charset)
{
    if (length < 0)
        throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException(nameof(length), $"{nameof(length)} must be greater or equal to 0");
    if (charset is null)
        throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(charset));
    if (charset.Length == 0)
        throw new ArgumentException($"{nameof(charset)} must contain at least 1 character", nameof(charset));

    var maxIdx = charset.Length;
    var chars = new char[length];
    var randomBuffer = new byte[length * 4];
    fillRandomBuffer(randomBuffer);

    for (var i = 0; i < length; i++)
        chars[i] = charset[BitConverter.ToUInt32(randomBuffer, i * 4) % maxIdx];

    return new string(chars);
}

使用生成器和LINQ。不是最快的选项(特别是因为它不会一次生成所有字节)，但相当整洁和可扩展:

private static readonly Random _random = new Random();

public static string GenerateRandomString(int length, string charset = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890") =>
    new string(_random.GetGenerator().RandomChars(charset.ToCharArray()).Take(length).ToArray());

public static string GenerateRandomCryptoString(int length, string charset = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890")
{
    using (var crypto = new System.Security.Cryptography.RNGCryptoServiceProvider())
        return new string(crypto.GetGenerator().RandomChars(charset.ToCharArray()).Take(length).ToArray());
}

public static IEnumerable<char> RandomChars(this Func<uint, IEnumerable<uint>> randomGenerator, char[] charset)
{
    if (charset is null)
        throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(charset));
    if (charset.Length == 0)
        throw new ArgumentException($"{nameof(charset)} must contain at least 1 character", nameof(charset));

    return randomGenerator((uint)charset.Length).Select(r => charset[r]);
}

public static Func<uint, IEnumerable<uint>> GetGenerator(this Random random)
{
    if (random is null)
        throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(random));

    return GeneratorFunc_Inner;

    IEnumerable<uint> GeneratorFunc_Inner(uint maxValue)
    {
        if (maxValue > int.MaxValue)
            throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException(nameof(maxValue));

        return Generator_Inner();

        IEnumerable<uint> Generator_Inner()
        {
            var randomBytes = new byte[4];
            while (true)
            {
                random.NextBytes(randomBytes);
                yield return BitConverter.ToUInt32(randomBytes, 0) % maxValue;
            }
        }
    }
}

public static Func<uint, IEnumerable<uint>> GetGenerator(this System.Security.Cryptography.RNGCryptoServiceProvider random)
{
    if (random is null)
        throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(random));

    return Generator_Inner;

    IEnumerable<uint> Generator_Inner(uint maxValue)
    {
        var randomBytes = new byte[4];
        while (true)
        {
            random.GetBytes(randomBytes);
            yield return BitConverter.ToUInt32(randomBytes, 0) % maxValue;
        }
    }
}

一个更简单的版本，使用LINQ只用于非加密字符串:

private static readonly Random _random = new Random();

public static string RandomString(int length, string charset = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890") =>
    new string(_random.GenerateChars(charset).Take(length).ToArray()); 

public static IEnumerable<char> GenerateChars(this Random random, string charset)
{
    if (charset is null) throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(charset));
    if (charset.Length == 0) throw new ArgumentException($"{nameof(charset)} must contain at least 1 character", nameof(charset));

    return random.Generator(charset.Length).Select(r => charset[r]);
}

public static IEnumerable<int> Generator(this Random random, int maxValue)
{
    if (random is null) throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(random));

    return Generator_Inner();

    IEnumerable<int> Generator_Inner() { while (true) yield return random.Next(maxValue); }
}

在这个线程中只是一些不同答案的性能比较:

方法与设置

// what's available
public static string possibleChars = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";
// optimized (?) what's available
public static char[] possibleCharsArray = possibleChars.ToCharArray();
// optimized (precalculated) count
public static int possibleCharsAvailable = possibleChars.Length;
// shared randomization thingy
public static Random random = new Random();


// http://stackoverflow.com/a/1344242/1037948
public string LinqIsTheNewBlack(int num) {
    return new string(
    Enumerable.Repeat(possibleCharsArray, num)
              .Select(s => s[random.Next(s.Length)])
              .ToArray());
}

// http://stackoverflow.com/a/1344258/1037948
public string ForLoop(int num) {
    var result = new char[num];
    while(num-- > 0) {
        result[num] = possibleCharsArray[random.Next(possibleCharsAvailable)];
    }
    return new string(result);
}

public string ForLoopNonOptimized(int num) {
    var result = new char[num];
    while(num-- > 0) {
        result[num] = possibleChars[random.Next(possibleChars.Length)];
    }
    return new string(result);
}

public string Repeat(int num) {
    return new string(new char[num].Select(o => possibleCharsArray[random.Next(possibleCharsAvailable)]).ToArray());
}

// http://stackoverflow.com/a/1518495/1037948
public string GenerateRandomString(int num) {
  var rBytes = new byte[num];
  random.NextBytes(rBytes);
  var rName = new char[num];
  while(num-- > 0)
    rName[num] = possibleCharsArray[rBytes[num] % possibleCharsAvailable];
  return new string(rName);
}

//SecureFastRandom - or SolidSwiftRandom
static string GenerateRandomString(int Length) //Configurable output string length
{
    byte[] rBytes = new byte[Length]; 
    char[] rName = new char[Length];
    SolidSwiftRandom.GetNextBytesWithMax(rBytes, biasZone);
    for (var i = 0; i < Length; i++)
    {
        rName[i] = charSet[rBytes[i] % charSet.Length];
    }
    return new string(rName);
}

结果

在LinqPad中测试。对于长度为10的字符串，生成:

from Linq = chdgmevhcy [10] from Loop = gtnoaryhxr [10] from Select = rsndbztyby [10] from GenerateRandomString = owyefjjakj [10] from securefastrrandom = VzougLYHYP [10] from securefastrrandom - nocache = oVQXNGmO1S [10]

性能数据会有细微的变化，偶尔NonOptimized会更快，有时ForLoop和GenerateRandomString会切换谁领先。
