First up, i am very much aware that there are other posts like this one. But i, for whatever reason, haven't been able to get it to work (#imanoob).
Context: I am making myself a password generator in c++, basically it uses rand to generate numbers, and these numbers correspond directly to ASCII characters.
So, generating the numbers is easy, but i need to convert this to their ASCII equivalents to actually make a usable password.
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <ctime>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
//Initializing variables.
int type = 0;
int character = 0;
char print = character;
//Generator.
srand(time(NULL));
for (int i=0; i<10;i++)
{
type = rand()%(3-1+1)+1;//Determines: 1 = Uppercase, 2 = Lowercase, 3 = Number.
if (type == 1)//If Uppercase.
{
character = rand()%(90-65+1)+65;//Determines Uppercase character to be generated.
cout<<print<<endl;
}
if (type == 2)//If Lowercase.
{
character = rand()%(122-97+1)+97;//Determine Lowercase character to be generated.
cout<<print<<endl;
}
if (type == 3)//If Numerical.
{
character = rand()%(57-48+1)+48;//Determines Number to be generated.
cout<<print<<endl;
}
}
}
In the code i posted above, you can see i last tried blatantly telling the program that the variable "character" needs to be used as an actually character. yes im stupid.
can i get a bit of insight here pls. if there is a link someon could provide to exactly this problem, i would be happy. and i really dont care if i get downvoted to oblivion.
Ok so there seems to be a bit of confusion. Rand generates a number say between 65 and 90. These numbers correspond to capital letters on the ASCII table. i want to print to the console the letter, not the generated number.
