#generate_digits(digits = 1) ⇒ String

Generate a string of random digits.

#generate_email(specifier = nil) ⇒ String

Generate a random email address.

The specifier portion may be:

  • ‘nil`, in which case nothing special happens;

  • a ‘String`, in which case the words in the string is shuffled, and random separators (`.` or `_`) are inserted between them;

  • an ‘Integer`, in which case a random alpha-string will be created with length of at least that many characters;

  • a ‘Range`, in which case a random alpha-string of length within the range will be produced.

Parameters:

  • specifier (nil, String, Integer, Range) (defaults to: nil) —

    a specifier to help generate the username part of the email address

Returns:

  • (String)
