Create a string that contains random characters (programming.dev)

Hi! ✌️ I need to generate some string in C++ with random characters that can use all letters from "a" to "z" (include capital letters), and all numbers from 0 to 9 there.

And for examples this should looks somehow like this:

SnHXAsOC5XDYLgiKM5ly

Also I want to encrypt that string then by itself:

SnHXAsOC5XDYLgiKM5ly encrypt with SnHXAsOC5XDYLgiKM5ly key.

So, how can I do this in C++? 🤔

Thanks in advance!

This is not doable in c++ unfortunately. Its an old case that’s only doable in f# or turbo pascal because of string handling and cryptography export rules (and possibly copy right)
