You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Create a password generation program which will generate passwords containing random ASCII characters from the following groups:
lower-case letters: a ──► z
upper-case letters: A ──► Z
digits: 0 ──► 9
other printable characters: !"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[]^_{|}~
(the above character list excludes white-space, backslash and grave)
The generated password(s) must include at least one (of each of the four groups):
lower-case letter, upper-case letter, digit (numeral), and one "other" character.
The user must be able to specify the password length and the number of passwords to generate.
The passwords should be displayed or written to a file, one per line.
The randomness should be from a system source or library.
The program should implement a help option or button which should describe the program and options when invoked.
You may also allow the user to specify a seed value, and give the option of excluding visually similar characters.
For example: Il1 O0 5S 2Z where the characters are:
- capital eye, lowercase ell, the digit one
- capital oh, the digit zero
- the digit five, capital ess
- the digit two, capital zee
AWK
<lang AWK>
- syntax: GAWK -f PASSWORD_GENERATOR.AWK [-v mask=x] [-v xt=x]
- examples:
- REM 4 character passwords using Rosetta Code default of: lower, upper, number, other
- GAWK -f PASSWORD_GENERATOR.AWK
- REM 8 character passwords; Rosetta Code default plus another four
- GAWK -f PASSWORD_GENERATOR.AWK -v mask=LUNPEEEE
- REM 8 character passwords ignoring Rosetta Code requirement
- GAWK -f PASSWORD_GENERATOR.AWK -v mask=EEEEEEEE
- REM help
- GAWK -f PASSWORD_GENERATOR.AWK ?
- sorting:
- PROCINFO["sorted_in"] is used by GAWK
- SORTTYPE is used by Thompson Automation's TAWK
BEGIN {
PROCINFO["sorted_in"] = "@ind_str_asc" ; SORTTYPE = 1 srand()
- setup strings of valid characters used by mask
arr["L"] = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz" # Lower case

arr["A"] = arr["L"] arr["U"] # Alphabetic: lower and upper case
arr["E"] = arr["L"] arr["U"] arr["N"] arr["P"] # Everything: lower, upper, number, punctuation
arr["B"] = " " # Blank: a space
- validate array index and length of assignment

}

}
mask_valids = sprintf("%s%s",mask_valids,i)
}
- validate command line variables

}
if (xt == "") {
xt = 10 # default iterations
}
if (xt !~ /^[0-9]+$/) {
error("xt is not 0-9")
}
- validate each character in mask
for (i=1; i<=length(mask); i++) {
c = substr(mask,i,1)
if (!(c in arr)) {
error(sprintf("mask position %d is %s, invalid",i,c))
}
}
- help
if (ARGV[1] == "?") {

if (ARGC-1 != 0) {

valids = arr[c] # valid characters for this position in mask
indx = int(rand() * length(valids)) + 1

incorrect argument
Passwords generator
Usage: pass2 [count] [-l<length>] [-s{0|1|2}] [-ng] [-ns]
count: number of passwords to be generated (default: 1)
-l<length>: length of passwords (default: 20)
-s{0|1|2}: exclude visually similar characters.
0 - don't exclude (default)
1 - exclude 0, O, 1, I, l, |
2 - also exclude 2, Z, 5, S
-ng: don't require password to include character from every group
-ns: don't include special chars in password
Default value of switches is choosen to match the task in page header, but I suggest to use the "-s1 -ng -ns".

Haskell
The password generation process.
The function password for given length and a list of char sets which should be included, generates random password.
<lang Haskell>import Control.Monad import Control.Monad.Random import Data.List
password :: MonadRandom m => [String] -> Int -> m String password charSets n = do
parts <- getPartition n chars <- zipWithM replicateM parts (uniform <$> charSets) shuffle (concat chars) where getPartition n = adjust <$> replicateM (k-1) (getRandomR (1, n `div` k)) k = length charSets adjust p = (n - sum p) : p
shuffle :: (Eq a, MonadRandom m) => [a] -> m [a] shuffle [] = pure [] shuffle lst = do
x <- uniform lst xs <- shuffle (delete x lst) return (x : xs)</lang>
For example:
λ> password ["abcxyz","123"] 10 "x3b1y2ac3z" λ> replicateM 5 (password ["abcxyz","123","#!"] 8) ["y!b#zyx2","xzcx!1xb","3zcax#aa","!ca1a2c#","#21a#zyc"]

Copyright Englebert Finklestien on this day which is Setting Orange day 48 of The Aftermath YOLD 3184. It is distributed under the terms of the GNU GPL (v3) As published by the free software foundation.
Usage :- Without any command line arguments this program will display 8 8-character long completely random passwords using all 96 available character glyphs from the basic ascii set.
With a single integer numerical argument it will produce eight passwords of the chosen length.
With a second integer numerical argument between 1 and 65536 it will produce that number of passwords.
With two integer arguments the first is taken as the length of password and the second as the number of passwords to produce.
The length of passwords can also be specified using -l or --length options
The number of passwords can also be specified using -n or --number options
It is also possible to exclude those glyphs which are simmilar enough to be confused (e.g. O and 0) using the -e or --exclude option
There are also the standard -a --about and -h --help options
Other options will produce an error message and the program will halt without producing any passwords at all.

<#
.SYNOPSIS
Generates one or more passwords.
.DESCRIPTION
Generates one or more passwords.
.PARAMETER Length
The password length (default = 8).
.PARAMETER Count
The number of passwords to generate.
.PARAMETER Source
An array of strings containing characters from which the password will be generated. The default is good for most uses.
.PARAMETER ExcludeSimilar
A switch which indicates that visually similar characters should be ignored.
.EXAMPLE
New-RandomPassword
Generates one password of the default length (8 characters).
.EXAMPLE
New-RandomPassword -Count 4
Generates four passwords each of the default length (8 characters).
.EXAMPLE
New-RandomPassword -Length 12 -Source abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz, ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ, 0123456789
Generates a password with a length of 12 containing at least one char from each string in Source
.EXAMPLE
New-RandomPassword -Count 4 -ExcludeSimilar
Generates four passwords each of the default length (8 characters) while excluding similar characters "Il1O05S2Z".

REXX
This REXX code was written as generically and idiomatically as possible so that the special characters and
the lowercase and uppercase alphabets may be extended with letters from other alphabets.
This REXX version supports specifying a seed for the random BIF, as well as specification of characters
to not to be used for the password.
This version isn't restricted to ASCII characters, it also supports EBCDIC as well.
It has a REXX statement (as a comment) to support the writing of the generated passwords to a file.
The documentation (help) could be expanded greatly, but only an abridged version is included here to keep
this REXX example relatively small for this Rosetta Code task.
Also, much more error checking should be added; not the least of it would be:
- if too many arguments specified (on the command line)
- checking if the (random) seed is valid
- better (informative) error messages (more verbose)
- don't let the user generate a gazillion passwords
- checking if the hexadecimal literal (yyy) is valid
- checking (for instance) if all digits were excluded via the xxx and/or yyy option

$Swift
Swift uses arc4random() to generate fast and high quality random numbers. However the usage of a user defined seed is not possible within arc4random(). To fulfill the requirements this code uses the C functions srand() and rand() that are integrated into the Swift file via an Bridging-Header.

----------------------------------
The function (named : Gp) needs 3 required parameters :
1- Nb_Passwords (Long) : the number of passwords to generate.
2- NbChar_Or_Pattern (Variant) : either a number or a pattern
If number : NbChar_Or_Pattern specify the password length. All the digits are random ASCII characters
If pattern : NbChar_Or_Pattern specify the password length and the layout of passwords.
The pattern is built like this :
"A" means Upper case, "a" means lower case, 9 means numerics and ! means others characters.
"-" is the separator between these values.
the number of characters is specified after the sign (required): "/"
example of pattern available : "A/3-a/2-9/1-!/1"
3- Excl_Similar_Chars (Boolean) : True if you want the option of excluding visually similar characters.
