Use char and ASCII.

\startMPcode for i=0 upto 3 : for j=0 upto 3 : draw unitsquare scaled 4cm shifted (4*i*cm,4*j*cm) ; endfor ; endfor ; for i=0 upto 4 : for j=0 upto 4 : label.llft(char(i*5+j+ASCII "A"), (4*i*cm,4*j*cm)) ; endfor ; endfor ; \stopMPcode

You should play with randomseed, the starting color (here white) and the randomization amplitude (1,1,1). You mileage may vary.

Sorry Henri, but I still have a question : how to have the letters in bold type ?

Use the infont operator. That info is a bit hidden in “2.10 Analyzing pictures” of the MetaFun manual. \starttext \startMPcode for i=0 upto 3 : for j=0 upto 3 : draw unitsquare scaled 4cm shifted (4*i*cm,4*j*cm) ; endfor ; endfor ; for i=0 upto 4 : for j=0 upto 4 : label.llft( char(i*5+j+ASCII "A") infont "SerifBold*default", (4*i*cm,4*j*cm) ) withcolor white randomized (1,1,1) ; endfor ; endfor ; \stopMPcode \stoptext

Thank you. Fabrice

Easier yet, the string can contain the font switch \bf:
