Brute force script in Python 3.2

Question

I\'m a beginner in writing code and I\'ve started with Python because it seemed the neatest and the easiest to start with (I currently have Python 3.2). Now I\'ve read some

Answer 1

import random

digits=list(range(0,1000))
password=random.randint(0,1000)
eachdigit=-1
print(password)
while eachdigit!=password:
    for eachdigit in digits:
        print(eachdigit)
        if eachdigit==password:
            print("Password is found:"+str(eachdigit)+"---------------------------")
            password=str(input("Enter new password if you wish"))

Answer 2

Code first:

from itertools import product

chars = '0123456789' # chars to look for

for length in range(1, 3): # only do lengths of 1 + 2
    to_attempt = product(chars, repeat=length)
    for attempt in to_attempt:
        print(''.join(attempt))

itertools.product produces a Cartesian join of its input(s) - in this case, it's being 'joined' to itself. So in the first iteration, each single character is printed. Then in the next iteration, because of repeat=length (and length is now == 2), generates '00', '01', etc... It's worth trying it and seeing the output to understand it better.

This also means you can throw in letters (uppercase/lowercase), and change the upperbound in the range function.

It's certainly not going to break the world of code-breaking, but should give you an idea of the flexibility of Python and the tools available to you.

I'll leave you to check the passwords match and break out the loop.

Answer 3

You want something like this:

PassWord = str(random.randint(0,9999))#example password 
for i in range(10000):    #0-9999
   Trial = str(i)  
   if Trial == Password:  
       print('Found password: ' + Password) 

Answer 4

This is what I have done, it is extremely ineffective and badly written, I am currently trying to put it into a function so it will do any length but it only does 4 atm. I used a string of letters/numbers and ran through that in sequence until answer = password:

idea = ["a","b","c","d","e","1","2","3",.........]
var = 0
answer = ""

while answer != password:
     answer = idea[var]
     print(answer)
     var += 1

If you value your eyes don't look below (warning you it is messy).

<pre><code>
password = input("pass:")
#idea = ["a","b","c","d","e","f","g","h","i","j","k","l","m","n","o","p","q","r","s","t","u","v","w","x","y","z","A","B","C","D","E","F","G","H","I","J","K","L","M","N","O","P","Q","R","S","T","U","V","W","X","Y","Z","1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9"," "]
#THE IDEA ABOVE IS THE FULL A-Z, 0-9 (takes ages)
password = input("pass:")
idea = ["a","b","c","d"]
awnser = [""] *6
var = 0
var1 = 0
var2 = 0
var3 = 0
char = 0

while awnser != password:
    awnser = idea[var]
    print(awnser)
    if var != len(idea):
        var += 1
    if var == len(idea):
        var = 0
        while awnser != password:
