Answer 2

while using getpass in python, nothing is indicated to show a password input.

this can be resolved by this simple solution:

just copy the ‘getpass_ak.py’ module provided in the link to python’s Lib folder.

use the following code:

import getpass_ak

a = (getpass_ak.getpass('password: '))

this will add * to your password inputs.

Answer 3

There is getpass(), a function which hides the user input.

import getpass

password = getpass.getpass()
print(password)
