Python Code Challenges

Copeland’s Corporate Company?has finalized what they want their username and temporary password creation to be and have enlisted your help, once again, to build the function to generate them. In this exercise, you will create two functions,?username_generator?and?password_generator.

Let’s start with?username_generator. Create a function called?username_generator?take two inputs,?first_name?and?last_name?and returns a?username. The username should be a slice of the first three letters of their first name and the first four letters of their last name. If their first name is less than three letters or their last name is less than four letters it should use their entire names.

For example, if the employee’s name is?Abe Simpson?the function should generate the username?AbeSimp.

The solution:

Now for the temporary password, they want the function to take the input user name and shift all of the letters by one to the right, so the last letter of the username ends up as the first letter and so forth. For example, if the username is?AbeSimp, then the temporary password generated should be?pAbeSim.

Start by defining the function?password_generator?so that it takes one input,?username?and in it define an empty string named?password.

Inside?password_generator?create a for loop that iterates through the indices username by going from?0?to?len(username).

To shift the letters right, at each letter the for loop should add the previous letter to the string?password.

The solution:
