    026 * Generates random {@link String}s.
    027 * <p>
    028 * Use {@link #secure()} to get the singleton instance based on {@link SecureRandom#SecureRandom()} which uses a secure random number generator implementing the
    029 * default random number algorithm.
    030 * </p>
    031 * <p>
    032 * Use {@link #secureStrong()} to get the singleton instance based on {@link SecureRandom#getInstanceStrong()} which uses an instance that was selected by using
    033 * the algorithms/providers specified in the {@code securerandom.strongAlgorithms} {@link Security} property.
    034 * </p>
    035 * <p>
    036 * Use {@link #insecure()} to get the singleton instance based on {@link ThreadLocalRandom#current()} <strong>which is not cryptographically secure</strong>. In addition,
    037 * instances do not use a cryptographically random seed unless the {@linkplain System#getProperty system property} {@code java.util.secureRandomSeed} is set to
    038 * {@code true}.
    039 * </p>
    040 * <p>
    041 * Starting in version 3.17.0, the method {@link #secure()} uses {@link SecureRandom#SecureRandom()} instead of {@link SecureRandom#getInstanceStrong()}, and
    042 * adds {@link #secureStrong()}.
    043 * </p>
    044 * <p>
    045 * Starting in version 3.16.0, this class uses {@link #secure()} for static methods and adds {@link #insecure()}.
    046 * </p>
    047 * <p>
    048 * Starting in version 3.15.0, this class uses {@link SecureRandom#getInstanceStrong()} for static methods.
    049 * </p>
    050 * <p>
    051 * Before version 3.15.0, this class used {@link ThreadLocalRandom#current()} for static methods, which is not cryptographically secure.
    052 * </p>
    053 * <p>
    054 * RandomStringUtils is intended for simple use cases. For more advanced use cases consider using Apache Commons Text's
    055 * <a href= "https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-text/javadocs/api-release/org/apache/commons/text/RandomStringGenerator.html"> RandomStringGenerator</a>
    056 * instead.
    057 * </p>
    058 * <p>
    059 * The Apache Commons project provides <a href="https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-rng/">Commons RNG</a> dedicated to pseudo-random number generation,
    060 * that may be a better choice for applications with more stringent requirements (performance and/or correctness).
    061 * </p>
    062 * <p>
    063 * Note that <em>private high surrogate</em> characters are ignored. These are Unicode characters that fall between the values 56192 (db80) and 56319 (dbff) as
    064 * we don't know how to handle them. High and low surrogates are correctly dealt with - that is if a high surrogate is randomly chosen, 55296 (d800) to 56191
    065 * (db7f) then it is followed by a low surrogate. If a low surrogate is chosen, 56320 (dc00) to 57343 (dfff) then it is placed after a randomly chosen high
    066 * surrogate.
