  • Uppercase Check: Requires at least one uppercase letter.
  • Lowercase Check: Requires at least one lowercase letter.

    git clone https://github.com/Fiiaaad/PRODIGY_CS_03.git

  2. Navigate to the project directory:

    cd password-strength-assessor

  3. No additional libraries are required as this script uses only built-in Python libraries.

Usage

  1. Run the script:

    python password_strength_assessor.py

  2. Enter a password when prompted.

  3. The tool will assess the password and provide feedback on its strength, along with suggestions for improvement if necessary.
