## Example

# random hexadecimal string. p SecureRandom.hex(10) #=> "52750b30ffbc7de3b362" p SecureRandom.hex(10) #=> "92b15d6c8dc4beb5f559" p SecureRandom.hex(11) #=> "6aca1b5c58e4863e6b81b8" p SecureRandom.hex(12) #=> "94b2fff3e7fd9b9c391a2306" p SecureRandom.hex(13) #=> "39b290146bea6ce975c37cfc23" ...

# random base64 string. p SecureRandom.base64(10) #=> "EcmTPZwWRAozdA==" p SecureRandom.base64(10) #=> "9b0nsevdwNuM/w==" p SecureRandom.base64(10) #=> "KO1nIU+p9DKxGg==" p SecureRandom.base64(11) #=> "l7XEiFja+8EKEtY=" p SecureRandom.base64(12) #=> "7kJSM/MzBJI+75j8" p SecureRandom.base64(13) #=> "vKLJ0tXBHqQOuIcSIg==" ...

# random binary string. p SecureRandom.random_bytes(10) #=> "016t{370g310pbr301" p SecureRandom.random_bytes(10) #=> "323U030TO234357020a337" ...
