​
Arguments

​
number
required
The number of random bytes before encoding. Converted to an integer, then checked against 0..1048576.

​
Returns

​
string
Base64 text containing the generated random bytes.
The size is converted to a native integer, then must be from 0 to 1048576 inclusive. Pass a whole-byte count; fractional input is truncated rather than explicitly rejected. Distinct from crypt.random, which returns raw bytes.
