## What is Random Number & Text Generator?

Random creates a string of characters (of your choice) of a particular length.

How to use this app:
1. Decide which characters you would like and enter them into the Allowed Characters field. Separate characters with a symbol of your choosing in the "Separating Character" Field.
2. Decide how long you want the output to be.
3. Click Generate!

You can copy the output and paste it into another application if you like. You can even have your phone read it to you (using the speak feature).

A couple of interesting ideas:
- You could mimic a set of DNA nucleotide bases (a genome). Type in "A,T,C,G" as the allowed characters and set a high length (100).
- You can create a dice by setting the allowed characters as "1,2,3,4,5,6" and setting the length to 1.
- Imitate a flipping coin by setting allowed characters to "heads,tails" and the length to 1.

If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to email me: support@loicverrall.co.uk.

### 5/5 — best random app ever

*2021-05-07*

i love it

### 4/5 — Limitless entry

*2018-11-26*

Nice to have the ability to create long strings of characters. Would like to know the source of randomness. Is it from computational algorithms? Also, you may want to spell the word “separating” correctly inside the app.

### 1/5 — Why?

*2017-04-09*

Aren't there already random generators that are likely more random online. There is no such thing as random, they must disclose how they got to those strings.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2016-01-31*

Wonderfully designed and easy to use

### 4/5 — Great

*2015-11-03*

Definitely one of the better random number generating apps and quite handy to be able to put in words and letters.  It would be great to be able to use constraints like a certain number of each item or limiting the length of runs.

### 5/5 — Useful app!

*2015-07-30, version 2.1*

It's well done.

### 5/5 — Love thid

*2015-05-07, version 2.1*

The app is very good

### 5/5 — Untitled

*2015-04-05*

Great; just the ticket.

### 5/5 — Developer you should be proud

*2014-11-19, version 2.0*

This app is fun and useful, there is no max letter limit, no iAP it's what people like in the apps they get, i applause you for not limiting anything on this, because clearly it can be limited. Your the developer who cares more about his audience, then profiting hugely, you are the best. I am proud of people like you.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2014-03-30*

Wish it was possible to use ranges for the numbers, and not have to type each individual number separated by commas. But still it's very simplistic, everything you need nothing you don't
