generate random upper string in function
显示 更早的评论
I tried to generate the same length of upper string as the input argument. For example, if I put wordscramble('abcd'), the length of the function should generate a four length upper string , like 'EFSA'. However, it seems doesnt work for it, is that any error in my codes?
function y = wordscramble(str)
y = str2func(str);
exchange = randperm(length(str));
x = 0;
y='';
for i=1:length(str)
y(i) = str(upper(exchange(i)));
end

David - your code, as written, just permutes the four characters of the input string so if your input is abcd you will never get an output of EFSA since E, F, and S are not characters in the input string. If that is what you want, then your above code can be simplified to
function y = wordscramble(str)
exchange = randperm(length(str));
y = upper(str(exchange));
Note how we don't need a for loop and that upper is applied to the input string characters and not the numbers in exchange.
If you wish to generate a random string of any four uppercase characters, then you could create an array of all characters (or their ASCII equivalent) and just randomly select four characters from that array. Something like
function y = wordscramble2(str)
aToZUpper = 65:1:90;
exchange = randperm(length(aToZUpper),length(str));
y = char(aToZUpper(exchange));
In the above, we create an array of 26 integers, using the ASCII decimal equivalent for each of the upper case characters A (65), B (66), ...., Z (90). We then randomly choose x characters where x is the length of our input string, and return the result.
