If there is any built-in function for getting random "letters"

like RANDOM(low,high) we used to generate the random number?

For my typing tutor I want to generate some sentences(which need not to be meaningful).

So I need to get some function to generate letters so that i can generate words from that.

(Change in logic also will be accepted. But I prefer this logic.)

Thank you

    A letter is a number too, so you already have the function. You just need to cast the number to a `char` data type (and select your random numbers from the correct range). Try googling `ascii table`. – Klaus Byskov Pedersen Mar 27 '12 at 11:41

If you use the 'chr()' function, you'll be able to generate ASCII letters. 

chr(RANDOM(65,90))

gives you a random upper-case letter between A and Z,

chr(RANDOM(97,122))

should give you a lowercase one.
