You're in a class, accessing a local function - you need to access it as $this->assign_rand_value() — MDEV

replace

$rand_id .= assign_rand_value($num);

with

$rand_id .= $this->assign_rand_value($num);

because if you call function like assign_rand_value($num) this meaning it will call either php function or core function you have created or included.

And doing $this->assign_rand_value($num) will call the class member function.

Don't you think, that as a 10k+ user, you should be answering questions that are beyond "help, I cannot read manual" level?

You should write:

   $rand_id .= $this->assign_rand_value($num);

Otherwise you could do something like this:

$options = array_merge(range('a', 'z'), range('0', '9'));
$rand_id.= $options[$num];
