A more flexible set of randoms for when you want to be random FAST

    use Data::Random::Flexible;

    my $random = Data::Random::Flexible->new();

    say "16 Character random of letters?, sure: ".$random->char(16);

    say "16 Of a mixture of numbers and letters?, sure: ".$random->mix(16);

    say "Random mixture of 16 your own characters?, sure: ".$random->profile('irc',16, [qw(a b c 1 2 3)]);

new

Create a new Math::Random::Flexible object, accepts 1 optional argument, a hashref of profiles

store

Set and/or return the stored profiles, will always return the currently used profiles, unless you pass it something it did not expect as a first argument, where it will return a blank hashref.

alpha()

Return a random alpha character uppercase or lowercase, accepts 1 argument 'length', if length is ommited return a single alpha-char;

char()

Though technically wrong, its a shorthand to alpha()

numeric()

Return a random whole number, accepts 1 argument 'length', if length is ommited return a single number.

int()

A shorthand for numeric()

alphanumeric()

Return a random alphanumeric string, accepts 1 argument 'length', if length is ommited return a single random alpha or number.

mix()

A shorthand for alphanumeric()

profile()

Set or adjust a profile of characters to be used for randoms, accepts 3 arguments in the following usages:

Create or edit a profile named some_name and return a 16 long string from it $random->profile('some_name',16,[qw(1 2 3)]);

Return 16 chars from the pre-saved profile 'some_name' $random->profile('some_name',16);

Delete a stored profile $random->profile('some_name',0,[]);
