Chilkat2-Python

Example: Crypt2.GenRandomBytesENC method

Shows how to use the GenRandomBytesENC method to generate a specified number of random bytes and return them as a binary encoded string, such as in base64 or hex format. Chilkat2-Python

import chilkat2

crypt = chilkat2.Crypt2()

# Example of a some of the binary encodings supported by Chilkat.

# Internally uses the Fortuna cryptographically secure random number generation algorithm
# auto-seeded from a secure source of entropy that depends on the OS.

crypt.EncodingMode = "hex"
s = crypt.GenRandomBytesENC(8)
print("Uppercase Hex: " + s)

crypt.EncodingMode = "hex_lower"
s = crypt.GenRandomBytesENC(8)
print("Lowercase Hex: " + s)

crypt.EncodingMode = "base64"
s = crypt.GenRandomBytesENC(8)
print("Base64: " + s)

crypt.EncodingMode = "base64url"
s = crypt.GenRandomBytesENC(8)
print("Base64Url: " + s)

crypt.EncodingMode = "base58"
s = crypt.GenRandomBytesENC(8)
print("Base58: " + s)

crypt.EncodingMode = "base32"
s = crypt.GenRandomBytesENC(8)
print("Base32: " + s)

crypt.EncodingMode = "decList"
s = crypt.GenRandomBytesENC(8)
print("Decimal List: " + s)
