C++ Random Character Generator Code

The document provides a C++ solution for generating random characters of different types, including small letters, capital letters, special characters, and digits. It includes a function to generate a random number within a specified range and a main function that outputs one random character of each type. The random number generator is seeded using the current time to ensure varied outputs.
