Functions in this category are meant to provide easy grab-and-go functions that are tailored for real-world simulation. This library will grow over time.

FirstNames

Return a pseudo-randomly sampled first name from the last US census data on first names occurring more than 100 times. Both male and female names are combined in this function.

• long -> FirstNames() -> String
  • ex: FirstNames() - select a random first name based on the chance of seeing it in the census data
• long -> FirstNames(String: modifier) -> String
  • ex: FirstNames('map') - select over the first names by probability as input varies from 1L to Long.MAX_VALUE

FullNames

Combines the FirstNames and LastNames functions into one that simply concatenates them with a space between. This function is a shorthand equivalent of {@code Template(‘{} {}’, FirstNames(), LastNames())}

• long -> FullNames() -> String

LastNames

Return a pseudo-randomly sampled last name from the last US census data on last names occurring more than 100 times.

• long -> LastNames() -> String
  • ex: LastNames() - select a random last name based on the chance of seeing it in the census data
• long -> LastNames(String: modifier) -> String
  • ex: LastNames('map') - select over the last names by probability as input varies from 1L to Long.MAX_VALUE
