What I was trying to do here was create a Python script that would generate passwords with 16 characters with uppercase and lowercase letters, and numbers. The generated password would then write itself to a file.Let me know what you think because I know they say the point of Python is to be able to write powerful scripts that can do what other languages can do in a few lines. I feel like this is probably way more then it should be for what it's doing.import randomimport stringprint Welcome to PassBook!def genPasswd():    global route    global password    global username    global account    global entry    account = raw_input(Account: )    username = raw_input(Username: )    key1 = random.randrange(10,100)    key2 = random.randrange(10,100)    key3 = random.randrange(10,100)    key4 = random.randrange(10,100)    keya = str(random.choice(string.letters) + random.choice(string.letters))    keyb = str(random.choice(string.letters) + random.choice(string.letters))    keyc = str(random.choice(string.letters) + random.choice(string.letters))    keyd = str(random.choice(string.letters) + random.choice(string.letters))    key1a = str(key1) + str(keya)    key2b = str(key2) + str(keyb)    key3c = str(key3) + str(keyc)    key4d = str(key4) + str(keyd)    password = str(key1a + key2b + key3c + key4d)    entry = Account:  + account +  - Username:  + username +  - Password:  + password    file = open(/home/meta/Desktop/Python2/passbook/passbook.txt, a)    file.write(\n + entry + \n)    print entry    return key1    return key2    return key3    return key4    return keya    return keyb    return keyc    return keyd    return key1a    return key2b    return key3c    return key4d    return password    return username    return account    return entrydef queryPb():    search = raw_input(For which account are you searching: )    read = open(/home/meta/Desktop/Python2/passbook/passbook.txt, r)    for line in read:        if search in line:            print line            return line        else:            print I'm sorry we could not find any account related to  + searchdef takeRoute():    global route    route = raw_input(Press 1 to generate a password, Press 2 to search for an existing account:  )    if int(route) ==1:        genPasswd()    elif int(route) == 2:        queryPb()    else:        print I'm sorry that is not an option!        exit()takeRoute()
