P1208 Password Generator Thinking 54 Outside the box Many websites require users to create passwords that meet certain criteria. When the user first creates an account or forgets her password, the site auto-generates a temporary password for her. This randomly generated password must meet all the password requirements. For this exercise, assume that all passwords must meet the following criteria: password must be between 8 and 12 characters long password must contain at least 1 lowercase letter password must contain at least 1 uppercase letter password must contain at least 1 number password must contain at least one of the following symbols. ~!@#$%"&? Your task is to use lists or strings to generate a random password string that meets these criteria. For security reasons, your password must be truly random. You cannot decide ahead of time that the 4th character will always be a digit, for example. Nor should you fix the length of the password (it must be randomly picked to be between 8 and 12 characters long). Starter Code Here Hint: the best way to do this may be to continuously generate random passwords using all the legal symbols until you generate one that meets all the criteria. Begin by creating a function that tests whether or not a given password is valid. Rubric Below
