gimmeh-teh-code is a tag???

ok no. Good.

bah, I wanted to make, as a code golf, a password generator in Python for tweeting purposes.

I didn't think Python would make it that easy though.

Now I'm 34 chars short from a full tweet. A waste not to use them.

what do you have so far?

import string as s,random;print ''.join(random.choice(s.letters+s.digits+s.punctuation)for x in range(16))

see? too short, it's a waste! :P

random.sample(s.letters+s.digits+s.punctuation,16) would only be marginally shorter and reduce entropy.

using the as s trick on random saves 0 chars.

0 chars? oh because of spaces ...

so I tried and made

echo -e "#!/usr/bin/python\nimport string as s,random;print ''.join(random.choice(s.letters+s.digits+s.punctuation)for x in range(16))">pw;chmod +x pw

that's 9 too long :(

check me:

echo -e "#!/usr/bin/python\nimport string as s,random as r;print ''.join(r.sample(s.letters+s.digits+s.punctuation,16)">pw;chmod +x pw;./pw

again, random as r doesn't actually save anything :)

whatever

that particular post is 139 characters long

and I'd have preferred not using random.sample as I said, but it's okay I guess :)

and it should execute the file as well

right?

well I guess you get to tweet it now :)

echo -e "#!/usr/bin/python\nimport string as s,random as r;print ''.join(r.sample(s.letters+s.digits+s.punctuation,16)">pw;
chmod +x pw;
./pw

oh I don't care, I was helping you figure it out mate

you post it

obviously bash gagged when it saw that exclamation point

I wouldn't doubt it

Hello

can you escape it with a \ ?

yeah, it worked, there's something wrong though

holy crap stupid markdown, one day you hate spaces, the next you like 'em

did I?

so you need to escape?

crap

badp@delta:~/Desktop$ echo -e "#\!/usr/bin/python\nimport string as s,random as r;print ''.join(r.sample(s.letters+s.digits+s.punctuation,16))">pw;chmod +x pw;./pw
./pw: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token `('
./pw: line 2: `import string as s,random as r;print ''.join(r.sample(s.letters+s.digits+s.punctuation,16))'

anyways, adding the ) gives you 140

if you need to escape the bang then ...

badp@delta:~/Desktop$ cat pw
#\!/usr/bin/python
import string as s,random as r;print ''.join(r.sample(s.letters+s.digits+s.punctuation,16))

rages

lmao

try -E

but that shouldn't matter either

gonna have to do a cat aren't you?

looks like there's another Google CR-48 laptop headed for my zip code... maybe mine :)

@radp too long by 3

echofon says by 3 ???

In [1]: len("""echo -e "#\x21/usr/bin/python\nimport string as s,random as r;print ''.join(r.sample(s.letters+s.digits+s.punctuation,16))">pw;chmod +x pw;./pw")""")
Out[2]: 141

:|

is it consuming the \n?

In [1]: len("""echo -e "#\x21/usr/bin/pythonaaimport string as s,random as r;print
''.join(r.sample(s.letters+s.digits+s.punctuation,16))">pw;chmod +x pw;./pw")""")

what does that give?

try this: echo -e $"#!/usr/bin/python\nimport string as s,random as r;print \'\'.join(r.sample(s.letters+s.digits+s.punctuation,16))">p;chmod +x p;./p (I don't have a unixy box handy)

I gotta make sure to use my laptop tomorrow.. Chrome 4 Cause :)
