Random string generation with upper case letters and digits

Question

I want to generate a string of size N.

It should be made up of numbers and uppercase English letters such as:

• 6U1S75
• 4Z4UKK
• U911K4

Answer 1

Use Numpy's random.choice() function

import numpy as np
import string        

if __name__ == '__main__':
    length = 16
    a = np.random.choice(list(string.ascii_uppercase + string.digits), length)                
    print(''.join(a))
