Tell us what’s happening:

I tried all my power to pass this step but I fail for 3 days now. I feel like I am following the instructions yet I don’t know what is happening may you please help me with this?

Your code so far

import re
import secrets
import string

def generate_password(length, nums, special_chars, uppercase, lowercase):
# Define the possible characters for the password
letters = string.ascii_letters
digits = string.digits
symbols = string.punctuation

# Combine all characters
all_characters = letters + digits + symbols

while True:
    password = ''
    # Generate password
    for _ in range(length):
        password += secrets.choice(all_characters)
   
    constraints = [
        (nums, r'\d'),
        (lowercase, r'[a-z]'),
        (uppercase, r'[A-Z]'),            
        (special_chars, fr'[{symbols}]')            
    ]
    # Check constraints
    for constraint, pattern in constraints:
        matches = len(re.findall(pattern, password))
        if matches <= constraint:
         
        
return password

new_password = generate_password(8)

print(new_password)

import re
import secrets
import string


def generate_password(length, nums, special_chars, uppercase, lowercase):
    # Define the possible characters for the password
    letters = string.ascii_letters
    digits = string.digits
    symbols = string.punctuation

    # Combine all characters
    all_characters = letters + digits + symbols

    while True:
        password = ''
        # Generate password
        for _ in range(length):
            password += secrets.choice(all_characters)
       
        constraints = [
            (nums, r'\d'),
            (lowercase, r'[a-z]'),
            (uppercase, r'[A-Z]'),            
            (special_chars, fr'[{symbols}]')            
        ]

        # Check constraints
