You can use the randi function to generate integers corresponding to the ascii values you want to allow in your random string.
An example to generate a character of length of 100 is as follows.
randomstr = char(randi([33 126],1,100));

You pick a function that computes a hash (e.g. the one Mohammad linked), and you provide your char array as the input. Although since you are generating a random string anyway, why don't you generate a random array of 0-9A-F as a stand-in for your hash?
What are you trying to achieve?
