Learn Regular Expressions by Building a Password Generator - Step 62

Tell us what’s happening:

No issue. There is a typo in the instruction. Not sure who should know about it to fix.

" You can combine the all() function with the list comphehension syntax to make your code more concise."

comphehension should be comprehension.

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
        count = 0

# User Editable Region

        if [constraint <= len(re.findall(pattern, password))
        for constraint, pattern in constraints]:

# User Editable Region

            break
    
    return password

# new_password = generate_password(8)
# print(new_password)

I understand the question, but it should be fixed from the application, since it’s the instructions that is not editable.

Please do not use AI gen content

Thanks @downtown for letting the forum know about the typo.

It is now raised as an issue on the freeCodecamp GitHub page.

Happy coding
