How do you generate random token

Question

I want to be able to generate a string that contains letters and numbers in Raku. I can't find a module that works.

I want to be able to generate something like this: w6sj7d2j2

Answer 1

say ("a".."z","A".."Z",0..9).flat.roll(8).join;   # M9lldSFC

("a".."z","A".."Z",0..9) specifies the list of characters that you want to occur in your random string.

.flat makes sure the ranges will be flattened to their elements

.roll(8) selects a random element from the list 8 times.

.join concatenates the selected elements from the list into a single string
