generate a random ID

annotated.js

function(
  a, // the character length of the ID (optional, 32 by default)
  b  // the radix of the ID (optional, 16 by default)
){
  b = b || 16;         // use a default radix of 16
  return Array(        // return an array
    a                  // of the length, if specified,
    || 32              // or 32 otherwise,
  )                   
  .join(0)             // joined into a string of 0s,
  .replace(            // and then replace
    /./g,              // each one, with
    function() {
      return(         
        0|             // a rounded
        Math.random()* // random number between 0 and
        b              // the radix,
      )
      .toString(b)     // and serialize it into a string.
    }
  )
}

index.js

function(a,b){b=b||16;return Array(a||32).join(0).replace(/0/g,function(){return(0|Math.random()*b).toString(b)})}
