It offers a simple and effective way to create passwords suitable for various applications, including securing accounts, generating temporary access credentials, or creating cryptographic keys.\n\n## Usage\n\n### Prerequisites\n\nThis program requires `Clang` and `Make` to build and run.\n\n### How to Use\n\n1. Clone the repository and navigate to the directory:\n    ```\n    git clone \u003crepository_url\u003e\n    cd pwdgen\n    ```\n\n2. Compile the program using a C compiler:\n    ```\n    make pwdgen\n    ```\n\n3. Run the program:\n    ```\n    ./pwdgen \u003clength\u003e\n    ```\n    Replace `\u003clength\u003e` with the desired length of the password (an integer).\n\n### Example\nGenerate password of length 12:\n```\n$ ./pwdgen 12\nv%b82j1Sll+2)V\n```\nThis will output a random password consisting of printable ASCII characters.\n\n\n### Notes\n- Ensure `\u003clength\u003e` is a valid integer.\n- Passwords are generated using ASCII values 33 to 126.\n- Only one argument (the password length) should be provided.\n\n## Other\n\n### Author\n\nFilip Rokita  \nWebsite: [www.filiprokita.com](http://www.filiprokita.com)\n\n### Legal\nThis program is provided as-is, without warranties or conditions of any kind, either express or implied.
