Cara menghasilkan data acak di SQL server

Tidak terlalu sulit untuk menghasilkan data acak, bahkan dalam SQL

Misalnya, untuk mendapatkan nama pengguna acak dari tabel profil pengguna Anda.

BEGIN
-- get a random row from a table
DECLARE @username VARCHAR(50)
SELECT @username = [Username] FROM (
    SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY [Username]) [row], [Username]
    FROM [UserProfile]
) t 
WHERE t.row = 1 + (SELECT CAST(RAND() * COUNT(*) as INT) FROM [UserProfile])

print(@username)
END

Untuk menghasilkan bilangan bulat acak...

BEGIN
-- get a random integer between 3 and 7 (3 + 5 - 1)
DECLARE @totalviews INT
SELECT @totalviews = CAST(RAND() * 5 + 3 as INT)
print(@totalviews)
END

Untuk menghasilkan string varchar acak

BEGIN
-- get a random varchar ascii char 32 to 128
DECLARE @videoname VARCHAR(160)
DECLARE @length INT
SELECT @videoname = ''
SET @length = CAST(RAND() * 160 as INT)
WHILE @length <> 0
    BEGIN
    SELECT @videoname = @videoname + CHAR(CAST(RAND() * 96 + 32 as INT))
    SET @length = @length - 1
    END
print(@videoname)
END

Dan akhirnya, kencan acak

BEGIN
-- get a random datetime +/- 365 days
DECLARE @uploadtime DATETIME
SET @uploadtime = GETDATE() + (365 * 2 * RAND() - 365)
print(@uploadtime)
END
