dim charCnt(1)

sub allcombos charstr$,combolen

    charstrlen=len(charstr$)
    for i=1 to charstrlen^combolen

        t$=""
        for k=combolen to 1 step -1
            t$=t$+mid$(charstr$,charCnt(k)+1,1)
        next k

                charCnt(k)=0
            end if
        next k

    next i
end sub

That isn't really random, that's following a pattern.

*nix "sh" script

for x in a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z
do
  for y in a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z
  do
    echo ${x}${y}
  done

should be easy to make for a programer

[keenan]

#include<stdio.h>

bool __cdecl Increment( char* lpToken, unsigned long dwLen )
{
	char* pStart = lpToken;
	lpToken = &lpToken[ dwLen ];
	
	do
	{
		switch ( ++lpToken[ 0 ] )
		{
		case 'Z'+1:
			lpToken[0] = 'a';
			return 1;
			break;
		case 'z'+1:
			lpToken[0] = '0';
			return 1;
			break;
		case '9'+1:
			lpToken[0] = 'A';
			break;
		default:
			return 1;
		}
		lpToken--;
	} while ( lpToken >= pStart );

	return 0;
}


int main( void )
{

	char szString[ 10 ];
	unsigned long dwLength = 1;
	*(unsigned short*)(szString) = 'A'; // unsigned short so we can copy the sz null.
	

	for ( unsigned long i = dwLength - 1; i < sizeof( szString ) -1; i++ )
	{
		do
		{
			printf( "%s\n", szString );
			//getchar( ); // uncomment to pause inc display.

		} while ( Increment( szString, dwLength -1 ) );
		*(unsigned short*)(szString+dwLength++) = 'A'; // ''
	}

	

	return 0;
}

For optimization you will need to remove the excessive branching in Increment().

$array = array('a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i','j','k','l','m','n','o','p','q','r','s','t','u','v','w','x','y','z');
shuffle($array);
$string = $array[0].$array[1]; 

edit: nevermind, seems you wanted a pattern like that not random. didn't read properly

[SpyCam]

so, who's the winner?

[seeandsee]

wow php contest

[keenan]

Why you would want a php script to do this I don't know. Just open up visual studio and run one of the sources I posted. Bam you've got a word list suitable for brute force.

I would hire the guy any time. I prefer a guy that can give me a quick and stable solution, than one that gives me a solution in 4 lines of code, with bugs, and his head up his ass.

Hire away.

BTW, here's your smart-arse 4 line solution - done in 1 line!

<? foreach(range('a','z') as $v) foreach(range('a','z') as $k) echo $v.$k."<br />" ?>

Hahaha, I had a brain fart. I would never leave something like that for money (not that I am for hire anyway), it actually has a bug but I didn't feel like fixing it, hopefully he just wanted the list and not an actual code.
