WU NAME

Having nothing to do late Sunday night, after so much interruption of precious sleep by my forever noisy family members, I logged on to the internet to see what’s there to interest me.

Good thing I found this, to keep me entertained. Thanks, Shine!

Generate Your Wu-Name
Created: 1999-11-16
PHP Script to Generate Wu-Name

The PHP script Generate Your Wu-Name generates a random name based of an adjective and a noun an example is my Wu-Name: Drunken Conqueror.

The PHP script uses two plain text files, one that holds all of the adjectives and the other all of the nouns. The script reads these files into two arrays. The PHP function file(filename) reads the filename file into an array with each line being an element of the array.

So next all that is needed is to randomly pick elements from these arrays. However, I don't want this to be totally random because your Wu-Name should not change each time you enter it in. Thus, I'll start the random number generator with a seed number, which will be based on the name entered. Using the PHP function srand(seed_number), which works just likes Perl's function, and generates a random number.
