I am making a password strength checker as a school project, but I am struggling to find a way to check how many integers are in the password, as such I am checking the password on three things, but I just cannot figure out how to check for integers. If the solution you guys could help me with could include the re library that would be even better. Thanks!
Here is my problematic code so far.
import re
i_pwdStrength = i_pwdLength + i_pwdChar + i_pwdInt
i_pwdLength = 0
i_pwdChar = 0
i_pwdInt = 0
i_attempts = 0
numbAttemps = int(input("Enter the amount of passwords you would like to check \n(MUST BE A NUMBER)"))
pwd = input("Enter Password")
while numbAttempts < i_attempts
pwd = pwd.lower()
i_pwdLength = pwd.length
if i_pwdLength <= 3:
i_pwdLength = 1
elif i_pwdLength > 3 && <= 6:
i_pwdLength = 2
elif i_pwdLength > 6 && <= 9:
i_pwdLength = 3
else i_pwdLength > 9:
i_pwdLength = 4
i_pwdChar = #This is a very long way of writing this code as I could not find a way to compress these lines. I may have used the 'or' command but I could not
if re.search(r'[x]',pwd): # work out how to integrate it and i thought that this code looked neater
i_pwdChar = 1
elif re.search(r'[w]'pwd):
i_pwdChar = 1
elif re.search(r'[y]'pwd):
i_pwdChar = 1
elif re.search(r'[z]'pwd):
i_pwdChar = 1
elif re.search(r'[x]',pwd) and re.search(r'[w]',pwd):
i_pwdChar = 2
elif re.search(r'[x]',pwd) and re.search(r'[y]',pwd):
i_pwdChar = 2
elif re.search(r'[x]',pwd) and re.search(r'[z]',pwd):
i_pwdChar = 2
elif re.search(r'[w]',pwd) and re.search(r'[y]',pwd):
i_pwdChar = 2
elif re.search(r'[w]',pwd) and re.search(r'[z]',pwd):
i_pwdChar = 2
elif re.search(r'[y]',pwd) and re.search(r'[z]',pwd):
i_pwdChar = 2
elif re.search(r'[w]',pwd) and re.search(r'[x]',pwd) and re.search(r'[y]',pwd):
i_pwdChar = 3
elif re.search(r'[z]',pwd) and re.search(r'[x]',pwd) and re.search(r'[y]',pwd):
i_pwdChar = 3
elif re.search(r'[w]',pwd) and re.search(r'[z]',pwd) and re.search(r'[y]',pwd):
i_pwdChar = 3
else re.search(r'[w]',pwd) and re.search(r'[x]',pwd) and re.search(r'[y]',pwd) and re.search(r'[z]',pwd)
i_pwdChar = 4
Due to all the help I have received I have finished the code.
import re
i_numbAttempts = int(input("How many passwords do you want to try?\nMUST BE A NUMBER!")) # Determines how many times the while loop further down
attempts = 0 # sets the variable attempts to 0 to ensure that the while loop works # repeats itself
while i_numbAttempts > attempts: # while the passwords entered is more than attempts:
pwd = input("Enter Password: ") # user enters password to check
pwd = pwd.lower() # sets the password to lowercase (QjwtwWyeRvgTRDU would become qjwtwwyervgtrdu)
if len(pwd) == 0: # if the user does not enter a password, it outputs: You must ypre something!
print("You must type something!")

elif len(pwd) >= 1 and len(pwd) <= 3: # if the length is a certain length,
i_pwdLength = 1 # it will assign a corresponding value to the i_pwdLength variable
