Motivation

Regular expressions are used in every language, every programmer is familiar with them. Regex can be used to easily express complex strings. What better way to generate random data?

Thanks to String-Random (perl) for giving me the idea to make this in the first place and randexp (ruby) for the nifty `.gen` syntax.
