I think the major pet peeve i have is that the "Randomizer" class is
encapsulating all random functions.
I would like to see each randomizer have its own class, since they are
under the Random namespace
anyway, I believe they should be Random/StringRandomiz

For the record: That is correct.

`getFloat01()` ?),

I would like to suggest changing the name or removing the nextFloat() method,
which is coming to PHP 8.3.
The Random\Randomizer class will have two new methods for generating
random numbers:
- getFloat($min, $max [, $boundary])
- nextFloat()
Now please try to guess what these methods do and, more
