    <p>The first post was confusamagin. My assignment is to create a password prompt program. The password needs to be checked to see if it does have at least one digit and one letter in it. Also the password length must be between 6 - 10.</p> <p>My problem is trying to figure out how see if a digit and letter exist the password. In the check password area I am not sure where to begin really. I am not sure how to see if it has a Letter and a Digit in one. I know how to do either or by using a for statement to count and check but all it does is check to see rather it contains all letters or all digits.</p> <pre><code>import java.util.Scanner; class Password { public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in); //------ENTER A USERNAME System.out.println("Welcome please enter your username and password."); System.out.print("Username &gt;&gt;"); input.nextLine(); //------PASSWORD AUTHENTICATION BEGIN String password = enterPassword(); while ( !checkPassword(password) ) { System.out.println("Password must be 6 - 10 characters long!"); password = enterPassword(); } //------PASSWORD VERIFY String passwordverify = enterPassword(); while (!password.equals(passwordverify)){ System.out.println("ERROR - Passwords DO NOT MATCH Re-Enter Passwords Again"); password = enterPassword(); } //------ACCEPT PASSWORD System.out.println("Username and Password Accepted!"); } //--ENTER PASSWORD STATEMENT public static String enterPassword(){ String password; Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.print("Password &gt;&gt;"); password = input.nextLine(); return password; } //--BOOLEAN CHECK PW public static boolean checkPassword(String password){ int length; length = password.length(); if (length &lt; 6 || length &gt; 11){ return false; } for (int i = 0; i &lt; password.length();i++){ if (!Character.isLetter(password.charAt(i))) return false; } return true; } } </code></pre>

    1. COWhy would you force a user to use a letter *and* a digit, while at the same time limit their password length to 10? Store the password hashed (like you should), and the length won't even matter.

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
