Codecoach password validation python 3

Hello, I have a problem with the last of 13 code checks of the password validator. I've already tried one change (see comments in the code) to have 2 and only two symbols. But with the changes I failed 3 checks instead of 1. I would appreciate your help! Thanks https://code.sololearn.com/cKXTtGibU69P/?ref=app

Try creating a seperate regex for each check. It become more simple when you, for example, make a numberRegex to check if theres at least one number, make a password length regex to make sure its long enough, ect. Then just create a "check" function that has ALL regex checks inside and have the input pass as the parameter

Thanks for the help, with your first comment, I did not understand what you mean, but now I think I get it and try to adapt the code👍

Slick thanks for your help. Changed it and I completed the challenge. But I'm not sure if the description of the problem fits the solution. My new code, as I understand it, only demands 1 symbol and one number instead of 2.. https://code.sololearn.com/cKXTtGibU69P/?ref=app

And it looks like you set up your regex with a raw string. THATS GREAT! But to make a regex: randRegex = re.compile([a-zA-Z]+) See how "re.compile()" was used? This regex matches one or more letter of any case

Got it. symbolRegex = re.compile(r'''( ([!@#$%^&*])+ ([^!@#$%^&*])* ([!@#$%^&*])+ )''',re.VERBOSE) It just says there will be one or more symbols, then zero or more NONsymbols, then one or more symbols after that

VERBOSE is used just to structure it as so. It disregards newlines and comments in the regex
