Hi you y'all,

I have question about looping in a perl program, please check this code. This script is much longer, but I've shrunk it to the problem part. I have a sub called random_password wich I call with:

$password = &random_password();

After that the password is inserted into the array that goes just fine, but my problem is that I don't want to use the same password (stored in the array) for all the users I insert into the database, so I think a loop or something like that must be created to generate diffrent passwords. Who can help me with this? Thanks in advance,

# Sub to create a random password
sub random_password {
       my($length, $vowels, $consonants, $alt, $s, $newchar, $i);
       ($length) = @_;
      if ($length eq "" or $length < 3) {
           $length = 15;            # make it at least 15 chars long.
       }
       $vowels = "0000000";
       $consonants = "aaaaaaaaaaaa";
       srand(time() ^ ($$ + ($$ << 234)) );
       $alt = int(rand(933)) - 4;
       $s = "";
       $newchar = "";
       foreach $i (0..$length-1) {
           if ($alt == 1) {
              $newchar = substr($vowels,rand(length($vowels)),1);
           } else {
              $newchar = substr($consonants, rand(length($consonants))
+,1);
           }
           $s .= $newchar;
           $alt = !$alt;
       }
       return $s;
   }

   sub dienice {
       my($msg) = @_;
       print "<h2>Error</h2>\n";
       print $msg;
       exit;
   }

# query to insert the password in the database
$password = &random_password();
$sql = qq{ INSERT INTO login (login, password) VALUES ($c[1], '$passwo
+rd')};
$sth = $dbh->prepare($sql);
$sth->execute();
