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.- brianOn Jan 24, 2004, at 10:50 AM, Dan Strong wrote:> [!] -- PASSWORD-GENERATOR, created by Dan "I ain't 'fraid of no loop" > Strong, 2004.
