非常简单的解决方案。它使用ASCII值，只是在它们之间生成“随机”字符。

public static class UsernameTools
{
    public static string GenerateRandomUsername(int length = 10)
    {
        Random random = new Random();
        StringBuilder sbuilder = new StringBuilder();
        for (int x = 0; x < length; ++x)
        {
            sbuilder.Append((char)random.Next(33, 126));
        }
        return sbuilder.ToString();
    }

}

这里有一个机制来生成一个随机的字母-数字字符串(我用它来生成密码和测试数据)，而不定义字母和数字，

CleanupBase64将删除字符串中必要的部分，并继续递归地添加随机的字母-数字字母。

        public static string GenerateRandomString(int length)
        {
            var numArray = new byte[length];
            new RNGCryptoServiceProvider().GetBytes(numArray);
            return CleanUpBase64String(Convert.ToBase64String(numArray), length);
        }

        private static string CleanUpBase64String(string input, int maxLength)
        {
            input = input.Replace("-", "");
            input = input.Replace("=", "");
            input = input.Replace("/", "");
            input = input.Replace("+", "");
            input = input.Replace(" ", "");
            while (input.Length < maxLength)
                input = input + GenerateRandomString(maxLength);
            return input.Length <= maxLength ?
                input.ToUpper() : //In my case I want capital letters
                input.ToUpper().Substring(0, maxLength);
        }

我的代码的主要目标是:

弦的分布几乎是均匀的(不关心微小的偏差，只要它们很小) 它为每个参数集输出超过几十亿个字符串。如果您的PRNG只生成20亿(31位熵)不同的值，那么生成8个字符的字符串(约47位熵)是没有意义的。 它是安全的，因为我希望人们使用它作为密码或其他安全令牌。

第一个属性是通过对字母大小取一个64位值的模来实现的。对于小字母(例如问题中的62个字符)，这导致了可以忽略不计的偏差。第二个和第三个属性是通过使用RNGCryptoServiceProvider而不是System.Random来实现的。

using System;
using System.Security.Cryptography;

public static string GetRandomAlphanumericString(int length)
{
    const string alphanumericCharacters =
        "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ" +
        "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz" +
        "0123456789";
    return GetRandomString(length, alphanumericCharacters);
}

public static string GetRandomString(int length, IEnumerable<char> characterSet)
{
    if (length < 0)
        throw new ArgumentException("length must not be negative", "length");
    if (length > int.MaxValue / 8) // 250 million chars ought to be enough for anybody
        throw new ArgumentException("length is too big", "length");
    if (characterSet == null)
        throw new ArgumentNullException("characterSet");
    var characterArray = characterSet.Distinct().ToArray();
    if (characterArray.Length == 0)
        throw new ArgumentException("characterSet must not be empty", "characterSet");

    var bytes = new byte[length * 8];
    var result = new char[length];
    using (var cryptoProvider = new RNGCryptoServiceProvider())
    {
        cryptoProvider.GetBytes(bytes);
    }
    for (int i = 0; i < length; i++)
    {
        ulong value = BitConverter.ToUInt64(bytes, i * 8);
        result[i] = characterArray[value % (uint)characterArray.Length];
    }
    return new string(result);
}

我听说LINQ是新的黑色，所以下面是我使用LINQ的尝试:

private static Random random = new Random();

public static string RandomString(int length)
{
    const string chars = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789";
    return new string(Enumerable.Repeat(chars, length)
        .Select(s => s[random.Next(s.Length)]).ToArray());
}

(注意:Random类的使用使得它不适用于任何与安全性相关的事情，比如创建密码或令牌。如果你需要强随机数生成器，请使用RNGCryptoServiceProvider类。)

尝试将两部分结合起来:独特(序列、计数器或日期)和随机

public class RandomStringGenerator
{
    public static string Gen()
    {
        return ConvertToBase(DateTime.UtcNow.ToFileTimeUtc()) + GenRandomStrings(5); //keep length fixed at least of one part
    }

    private static string GenRandomStrings(int strLen)
    {
        var result = string.Empty;

        using (var gen = new RNGCryptoServiceProvider())
        {
            var data = new byte[1];

            while (result.Length < strLen)
            {
                gen.GetNonZeroBytes(data);
                int code = data[0];
                if (code > 48 && code < 57 || // 0-9
                    code > 65 && code < 90 || // A-Z
                    code > 97 && code < 122   // a-z
                )
                {
                    result += Convert.ToChar(code);
                }
            }

            return result;
        }
    }

    private static string ConvertToBase(long num, int nbase = 36)
    {
        const string chars = "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"; //if you wish to make the algorithm more secure - change order of letter here

        // check if we can convert to another base
        if (nbase < 2 || nbase > chars.Length)
            return null;

        int r;
        var newNumber = string.Empty;

        // in r we have the offset of the char that was converted to the new base
        while (num >= nbase)
        {
            r = (int)(num % nbase);
            newNumber = chars[r] + newNumber;
            num = num / nbase;
        }
        // the last number to convert
        newNumber = chars[(int)num] + newNumber;

        return newNumber;
    }
}

测试:

    [Test]
    public void Generator_Should_BeUnigue1()
    {
        //Given
        var loop = Enumerable.Range(0, 1000);
        //When
        var str = loop.Select(x=> RandomStringGenerator.Gen());
        //Then
        var distinct = str.Distinct();
        Assert.AreEqual(loop.Count(),distinct.Count()); // Or Assert.IsTrue(distinct.Count() < 0.95 * loop.Count())
    }

Eric J.写的代码很潦草(很明显这是6年前写的……他今天可能不会写那个代码)，甚至还有一些问题。

与目前提出的一些替代方案不同，这个方案在密码学上是合理的。

不真实的…在密码中有一个偏差(正如在注释中所写的那样)，bcdefgh比其他的更有可能(a不是，因为通过GetNonZeroBytes，它不会生成值为0的字节，因此a的偏差由它平衡)，所以它在密码学上并不可靠。

这应该可以纠正所有的问题。

public static string GetUniqueKey(int size = 6, string chars = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890")
{
    using (var crypto = new RNGCryptoServiceProvider())
    {
        var data = new byte[size];

        // If chars.Length isn't a power of 2 then there is a bias if
        // we simply use the modulus operator. The first characters of
        // chars will be more probable than the last ones.

        // buffer used if we encounter an unusable random byte. We will
        // regenerate it in this buffer
        byte[] smallBuffer = null;

        // Maximum random number that can be used without introducing a
        // bias
        int maxRandom = byte.MaxValue - ((byte.MaxValue + 1) % chars.Length);

        crypto.GetBytes(data);

        var result = new char[size];

        for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
        {
            byte v = data[i];

            while (v > maxRandom)
            {
                if (smallBuffer == null)
                {
                    smallBuffer = new byte[1];
                }

                crypto.GetBytes(smallBuffer);
                v = smallBuffer[0];
            }

            result[i] = chars[v % chars.Length];
        }

        return new string(result);
    }
}
