I'm writing a program where I want to be able to generate a random integer within a set range from a seed of two 10-character alpha-numeric strings (for example: "bGmwcRG6ch" and "7AdFJ4VyY3"). I also want the same number to be generated no matter what language I am running this on. This number will correspond to a predefined username stored within the program.
The part I'm having the most trouble with is I want to be able to add more usernames (increase the range of the set) in the future without changing everyone's usernames. Currently I have 200.
What I have so far (written in Java):
public String generateUsername(String userId, String chatId)
{
String s = userId + chatId;
long seed = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++)
{
seed = seed + s.charAt(i);
}
Log.d("chatId", chatId);
Log.d("userId", userId);
Log.d("Seed: ", Long.toString(seed));
}
Log output:
11-07 14:58:45.902 10666-10666/? D/chatId: bGmwcRG6ch
11-07 14:58:45.902 10666-10666/? D/userId: 7AdFJ4VyY3
11-07 14:58:45.902 10666-10666/? D/Seed:: 1669
Any advice would be much appreciated.
