Proyecto de clase práctica
In this project, you’ll write a simple Python program that checks whether a user’s password is strong or weak based on specific criteria.
Requirements:
Your password checker should:
-
Ask the user to input a password.
-
Check that the password:
-
Is at least 8 characters long
-
Contains uppercase and lowercase letters
-
Includes at least one digit
-
Has at least one special character (e.g., !@#$%^&*)
-
-
Print "Strong password" if it passes all checks, otherwise print "Weak password".
I have attached a PDF document with my own code for this project. You can reference it and compare my code with yours.
