shuffleArray()
shuffleString()

static array shuffleArray( array $array = array())

Returns a shuffled version of the array.

This function does not mutate the original array. It uses the Fisher–Yates algorithm, which is unbiased, together with a Mersenne twister random generator. This function is therefore more random than PHP's shuffle() function, and it is seedable.

Parameters

array $array The set to shuffle

Return Value

array The shuffled set

static string shuffleString( string $string = '', string $encoding = 'UTF-8')

Returns a shuffled version of the string.

This function does not mutate the original string. It uses the Fisher–Yates algorithm, which is unbiased, together with a Mersenne twister random generator. This function is therefore more random than PHP's shuffle() function, and it is seedable. Additionally, it is UTF8 safe if the mb extension is available.

Parameters

string $string The set to shuffle
string $encoding The string encoding (defaults to UTF-8)

Return Value

string The shuffled set

static string numerify( string $string = '###')

string

static string bothify( string $string = '## ??')

Replaces hash signs ('#') and question marks ('?') with random numbers and letters An asterisk ('*') is replaced with either a random number or a random letter

Parameters

string $string String that needs to bet parsed

Replaces * signs with random numbers and letters and special characters

Parameters

string $string String that needs to bet parsed

// will never return twice the same value $faker->unique()->randomElement(array(1, 2, 3));

Parameters

boolean $reset If set to true, resets the list of existing values
integer $maxRetries Maximum number of retries to find a unique value, After which an OverflowException is thrown.

Exceptions

OverflowException When no unique value can be found by iterating $maxRetries times

ValidGenerator valid( Closure $validator = null, integer $maxRetries = 10000)

Chainable method for forcing any formatter to return only valid values.

The value validity is determined by a function passed as first argument.

$values = array(); $evenValidator = function ($digit) { return $digit % 2 === 0; }; for ($i=0; $i < 10; $i++) { $values []= $faker->valid($evenValidator)->randomDigit; } print_r($values); // [0, 4, 8, 4, 2, 6, 0, 8, 8, 6]

Parameters

Closure $validator A function returning true for valid values
integer $maxRetries Maximum number of retries to find a unique value, After which an OverflowException is thrown.
