What impact does the length of the string have on the generation of random numbers in PHP, and how can this be optimized for error-free execution?

The length of the string used to generate random numbers in PHP can impact the randomness and distribution of the generated numbers. To optimize for error-free execution, it is recommended to use a sufficiently long and cryptographically secure string as the input for generating random numbers. This can help ensure that the generated numbers are truly random and not predictable.

// Use a cryptographically secure string as input for random number generation
$randomNumber = random_int(1, 100); // Generates a random number between 1 and 100
