Do you mean something like this?


import std.stdio, std.random, std.ascii, std.range, std.conv;

string genRandomString(in size_t len) {
     return len
            .iota
            .map!(_ => lowercase[uniform(0, $)])
            .text;
}

void main() {
     import std.stdio;

     10.genRandomString.writeln;
}
