In PredictiveEcology/SpaDES.core: Core Utilities for Developing and Running Spatially Explicit Discrete Event Models

Generate random strings

Description

Generate a vector of random alphanumeric strings each of an arbitrary length.

Usage

rndstr(n, len, characterFirst)

## S4 method for signature 'numeric,numeric,logical'
rndstr(n, len, characterFirst)

## S4 method for signature 'numeric,numeric,missing'
rndstr(n, len)

## S4 method for signature 'numeric,missing,logical'
rndstr(n, characterFirst)

## S4 method for signature 'missing,numeric,logical'
rndstr(len, characterFirst)

## S4 method for signature 'numeric,missing,missing'
rndstr(n)

## S4 method for signature 'missing,numeric,missing'
rndstr(len)

## S4 method for signature 'missing,missing,logical'
rndstr(characterFirst)

## S4 method for signature 'missing,missing,missing'
rndstr(n, len, characterFirst)

Arguments

n	Number of strings to generate (default 1). Will attempt to coerce to integer value.
len	Length of strings to generate (default 8). Will attempt to coerce to integer value.
characterFirst	Logical, if TRUE, then a letter will be the first character of the string (useful if being used for object names).

Value

Character vector of random strings.
