Simple complex password generator

These are really easy to write, but it’s always handy to have your own. This one lives here in its cgi form.

#! /usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

## Let the browser know what we're sending it
print "content-type: text/html\n\n";

## Spew some HTML since we're not going to get away with plain text formatting
print "\n\t";
print "\t\tPasswords!";
print "\t";
print "\n\tAvi's Magical Password Generator";

## Define two sets of data. The first is the lengths of password we want 
## to produce, the second is the allowed characters. Each space-separated
my $lengths="1 4 8 10 20 30 50 80 100";
my $characters="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 0 ! $ % ^ & _ + = : ; @ # ~ , . ? ";

## Split the above by space into arrays
my @chars=split(/ /, $characters);
my @lens=split(/ /, $lengths);

## Work out how many characters we are allowed, so that when we
## come to pick one at random we can use this number as the maximum.
my $chars_count = @chars;

## Spew out some html for pretty formatting:
print "\n";
print "\t";

## The loop!
foreach (@lens){
	my $length=$_;
	my $count;
	## The first cell of the row, containing the length:
	print "\n\t\t\t\n";
}
print "length".$_."";
	for ($count = 1; $count < = $length; $count++){
		## Working backwards, $chars_count is the above-defined
                ## number of characters we have to play with, 
                ## rand($chars_count) picks a random number between 0 and
                ## $chars_count, and int(rand($chars_count)) makes sure 
                ## it's an integer. This in the square brackets after $chars 
                ## means we're picking a random element out of the array 
                ## @chars, which is effectively picking a random character 
                ## out of the list of allowed ones.
		print $chars[int(rand($chars_count))];
	}
	print "\n\n";

print "sauce home";
