Oh yeah, you said you want to build a string:

def generate_string(len)
  raise ArgumentError if len < 1
  (1..len).map{ get_random_char }.join
end

generate_string(10) # => "mjaxig1w35"

or

def generate_string(len)
  raise ArgumentError if len < 1
  s = ''
  len.times { s << get_random_char }
  s
end

generate_string(10) # => "dtuou833gq"
