int main()
{
    srand(time(0));
    int length;
   
    // Asks user for the length of which they want there password
    cout << "Length of password: ";
    cin >> length;
   
    // For loop, keeps looping until i = length of password user wants.
    for (int i = 0; i < length; i++)
    {

    "0123456789"
    "!@#$%^&*"
    "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"
    "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";
