Function Details

function alpha

generator alpha()
generator alpha(integer max)
generator alpha(integer min, integer max)
The range function 'alpha' generates a random alpha string. The length of the string depends on the arguments this function is called with.
Parameters:
No arguments - generates an alpha string of length between 0 and 100.
One int argument - generates an alpha string of length between 0 and 'max'.
max - max string length.
two int arguments - length range.
min - min length
max - max length

generator alphaNum(integer max)
generator alphaNum(integer min, integer max)
Same as alpha but generates an alpha numeric string.
Parameters:
No arguments - generates an alphaNum string of length between 0 and 100.
One int argument - generates an alphaNum string of length between 0 and 'max'.
max - max string length.
two int arguments - length range.

function element

generator element(any[] as)
'element' picks a random element from provided argument array 'as'.
Parameters:
as - array
Returns:
the element generator which executed returns a random element from argument array 'as'.

function emailAddress

generator emailAddress()
Random email address generator that uses names, surnames and domains dictionaries to generate email addresses of the form 'name.surname1@surname2.domain'.

function int

generator int()
generator int(integer max)
generator int(integer min, integer max)
A random integer generator. 'int' is a rage function that generates a value between min and max, depending on arguments the function is called with.
Parameters:
No arguments - the generator returns a random value between 0 and 100.
One int argument - the generator returns a random value between 0 and max.
max - max value.
Two int argument - the generator returns a random value between min and max.
min - from integer
max - to integer
Returns:
a generator which executed generates a random integer.

function ipAddress

generator ipAddress(string fromIP, string toIP)
Generates a random IP address string in the range from 'fromIP' to 'toIP'.
Parameters:
fromIP - IP string of the form '192.168.0.1'.
toIP - IP string of the form '192.168.0.10'.
Returns:
a random IP address generator.
Defined in Popcorn.Network

function macAddress

generator macAddress(string delimiter)
