Description:

This project is intended to teach me the basics of PHP. In order to gain a better understanding of PHP, I will implement a password generator using the xkcd style and methodology. More information about the XKCD Password Method can be found here: https://xkcd.com/936/

Demo Information:

I plan to do an in person demo in my Section after Thursday's lecture in front of my group and TA Dan.

Additional Information:

• Coded to HTML5 standards and uses the http://validator.w3.org/ service to check it.
• No Login is required.
• Did a cat common-english-words.txt | tr "," "\n" > wordlist to make it easier to parse in PHP.
• My special characters word list is also loaded from a file called speciallist in the dictionary directory.
