<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Zizaco\Entrust\Traits\EntrustUserTrait;
use Eloquent;

class User extends Eloquent
{
    use EntrustUserTrait;

    /**

     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $fillable = [

    ];
}

        foreach (range(1, 100) as $index) {
            $faker = Faker::create();
            $user = User::create([
                'name' => $faker->firstName . ' ' . $faker->lastName,
                'email' => $faker->email,
