Description:
------------
---
From manual page: https://php.net/function.openssl-random-pseudo-bytes
---
The iterator in Example #1 start with the value -1

This gives an error: Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Length must be greater than 0.

Removing the minus sign solves the issue.

Indeed, the example makes no sense; if $length <= 0, the function
returns FALSE.

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
