// 1
const id = stampId.generate('ddd-dd-dddd')
// --> "253-15-7920

const id = stampId.generate('+1 Ndd-Ndd-dddd')
// --> "[phone]"

// 3
stampId.setAlphabet('R', 'AAAAAAAAAB')
const id = stampId.generate('R')

// 1
stampId.setAlphabet('?', '-+./')`
const id = 'a0+b1/z9.gg-zz'
const isValid = stampId.validate(id, 'aa?aa?aa?aa?aa')
