module ActiveSupport::SecureRandom
def self.base64(n=nil)
If secure random number generator is not available,
It may be larger in future.
If n is not specified, 16 is assumed.
The length of the result string is about 4/3 of n.
The argument n specifies the length of the random length.
SecureRandom.base64 generates a random base64 string.
def self.base64(n=nil) [random_bytes(n)].pack("m*").delete("\n") end
def self.hex(n=nil)
If secure random number generator is not available,
It may be larger in future.
If n is not specified, 16 is assumed.
The length of the result string is twice of n.
The argument n specifies the length of the random length.
SecureRandom.hex generates a random hex string.
def self.hex(n=nil) random_bytes(n).unpack("H*")[0] end

If secure random number generator is not available,

If n is not specified, 16 is assumed.
The argument n specifies the length of the result string.

def self.random_number(n=0)
SecureRandom.random_number returns an float:
If 0 is given or an argument is not given,
0 <= SecureRandom.random_number(n) < n.
SecureRandom.random_number returns an integer:
If an positive integer is given as n,
SecureRandom.random_number generates a random number.
