Description

Certain strings like passwords are often difficult to remember, especially if they are simply a random combination of letters and numbers. With memorable_strings, strings are generated based on a set of rules that combine phonemes in a manner that makes the sequence of characters more memorable. When used in combination with features like generating passwords, this can help improve the user experience.

Usage

  String.memorable                                    # => "maikipeo"
  String.memorable(:length => 5)                      # => "quoge"
  String.memorable(:capital => true)                  # => "Bukievai"
  String.memorable(:digit => true)                    # => "ood4yosa"
  String.memorable(:capital => true, :digit => true)  # => "Goodah5e"
  String.memorable(:print_friendly => true)           # => "ahkeehav"
