It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 55683
interpreted = N
texte = Good example, if a little verbose. Try this code which does the same thing but a bit more efficienly: [text]tPasswordLength=8[/text] [text]tChars=abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz01234567890123456789[/text] [text]tMax=[countchars][tChars][/countchars][/text] [text]tPass=[/text] [loop start=1&end=[tPasswordLength]] [text]tX=[math]ceil([random format=float]*[tMax])[/math][/text] [text]tPass=[tPass][getchars start=[tX]&end=[tX]][tChars][/getchars][/text] [/loop] [tPass]
Note that to add characters - punctuation, capital letters - or to adjust the odds of certain characters being selected, simply add more characters to the "tChars" string and the rest of the code will take care of itself. - brian On Jan 24, 2004, at 10:50 AM, Dan Strong wrote: > [!] -- PASSWORD-GENERATOR, created by Dan "I ain't 'fraid of no loop" > Strong, 2004.
