PHP生成隨機數，字符串

function rand_string($len = 6, $type = '', $addChars = '') { 
    $str = ''; 
    switch ($type) { 
        case 0 : 
            $chars = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz' . $addChars; 
            break; 
        case 1 : 
            $chars = str_repeat ( '0123456789', 3 ); 
            break; 
        case 2 : 
            $chars = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ' . $addChars; 
            break; 
        case 3 : 
            $chars = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz' . $addChars; 
            break; 
        default : 
            // 默認去掉了容易混淆的字符oOLl和數字01，要添加請使用addChars參數 
            $chars = 'ABCDEFGHIJKMNPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijkmnpqrstuvwxyz23456789' . $addChars; 
            break; 
    } 
    if ($len > 10) { //位數過長重復字符串一定次數 
        $chars = $type == 1 ? str_repeat ( $chars, $len ) : str_repeat ( $chars, 5 ); 
    } 
    if ($type != 4) { 
        $chars = str_shuffle ( $chars ); 
        $str = substr ( $chars, 0, $len ); 
    } else { 
        // 中文隨機字 
        for($i = 0; $i < $len; $i ++) { 
            $str .= msubstr ( $chars, floor ( mt_rand ( 0, mb_strlen ( $chars, 'utf-8' ) - 1 ) ), 1 ); 
        } 
    } 
    return $str; 
}
