Answer 1

I'm not sure how efficient it is as I'm very new to coding, however, why not just utilize the random number your already creating? Wouldn't this "randomize" an uppercase char as well?

    int num = random.Next(0,26);           
    char let = (num > 13) ? Char.ToUpper((char)('a' + num)) : (char)('a' + num);

Also, if you're looking to take a single letter from your char[], would it be easier to just use a string?

    string charRepo = "$%#@!*abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890?;:ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ^&"; 
    Random rando = new Random();
    int ranNum = rando.Next(0, charRepo.Length);

    char ranChar = charRepo[ranNum];
