Note that possible_chars is a string - like tuples, lists and dicts, strings are iterable, so you don't need to make a separate list of each individual possible character. If you're on a system that won't take punctuation marks, just remove it. The three I chose should all be good valid password characters. string contains a bunch of predefined constants for working with strings. The reason I made such a big deal out of reading the docs is the following few lines: possible_chars = string.ascii_letters + string.digits + string.punctuation If a line comes out to 83 characters, don't sweat it, but be aware of what you're doing. Its recommendations aren't absolute, but many projects that enforce coding standards rely on it. I highly recommend reading, rereading, and spending time pondering PEP-8, the Python style guide. Be generous with whitespace (also remember that whitespace is syntactically important in Python as well, so it forces you to indent properly) to separate related bits of code, functions, classes, blocks, etc.

Code is not only meant to be read by machines, but by people as well.
One thing to remember, that I mentioned in the comments: readability counts. Put a blank line or two after the imports as well. I like to put mine in alphabetical order, with the stdlib on top, then a blank line, then 3rd-party modules, including self-written ones next. Imports are first, and should almost always be only at the top.
Get used to Monty Python references, they're everywhere. They're generally fairly well written, and usually pretty inclusive. One thing I like to do in my spare time is just pick a random module and read the docs, just to learn. That way, such as in this case, you'll be able to pick the best function for the job. Make sure you read the whole thing (none of them are that long) and try to get at least a basic idea of what each thing does. You're going to be working with the stdlib's modules all the time, so when you think you'll be using one, read the docs! You'll learn about the module, what its intended use is, some of its history and changes (such as in which version a certain function was added), and all of the classes, functions, and attributes contained therein. Python is not just the syntax and builtin functions, it is also the standard library or stdlib. Print("I can only generate passwords between 1 and 25 characters long.") Print("Your new password is:\n" + new_pwd) Pwd_len = int(input('How long do you want your password? ')) Would you like a random password suggestion generated? Possible_chars = string.ascii_letters + string.digits + string.punctuation Here it is in full, then I'll explain each part: import random I refactored your program a bit, and got rid of a lot of unnecessary steps and inconsistencies. While printList < (len(randPasswordList)-1): Print('I can\'t generate a password that long')
RandPasswordList = changeCase(randPasswordList) RandPasswordList.insert(listInsert, randChar()) While listInsert = lengthRandomGenerator: Print('How long do you want your password?') PermissionRandomGenerator = input().lower() Print('Would you like a random password suggestion generator', 'Yes or No') After editing it however, I cannot generate an even number of digits in the password.Ĭopy of Faulty Code (Pastebin) import mathĪlpha =

Then I decided that it would make more sense to put the password generator into a separate document, so I copied the necessary code and made a new document. I edited it a few times, and on the last edit that I did, I added an optional random password generator. I am beginning to learn Python and started experimenting with an example code block.
