Generate a secure and random password
Clone repo:
Open the Command Prompt (on Windows) or whichever terminal you happen to be using on your computer. Navigate to the location in which you would like to store the repo. To clone repo from Github to your selected location, use the following command:
git clone <repo-url>
* in our case: repo-url = [email protected]:vlsulliv/Random_Password.git
So, copy the command
git clone [email protected]:vlsulliv/Random_Password.git
into your terminal, and press enter to iniate the cloning process.

- For more password best practices visit
- At least 8 characters—the more characters, the better
- A mixture of both uppercase and lowercase letters
- A mixture of letters and numbers
- Inclusion of at least one special character, e.g., ! @ # ? ]
- Note: do not use < or > in your password, as both can cause problems in Web browsers
- Change it regularly—once every three to six months.
- Change it if you have the slightest suspicion that the password has become known by a human or a machine.
- Never use it for other websites.
- Avoid typing it on computers that you do not trust; for example, in an Internet café.
- Never save it for a web form on a computer that you do not control or that is used by more than one person.
- Never tell it to anyone.
- Never write it down.
Think of a word or phrase, and then substitute the letters with numbers and special characters and mix the case. For example:
- Snoopy and Woodstock becomes Sno0py&ws
- In the dog house becomes !nTh3dawgHs
- Let’s have dinner at 8:00 p.m. becomes Lhd@800pm
- Think of a word and a number, then intermix them and mix the case. For example, your elementary school name (Main Street Elementary) and your pet’s birth month and year (12/96) becomes m1A2/i9n6
