Question

Privacy program, lab2pr2.py Write an automated password-hiding program that
could be used in automatic password manager. The program will first read user
passwords, one at a time, and store them in a list. When the user enters an empty
string (just hits enter), they are finished with the input. The program should
then replace each password with a string of * corresponding to the length of the

original password. As the output, the program should print the original list and
the resulting list.
For instance, here’s the output from a sample run of your program:
Please enter a password (press [enter] to finish): Tulane123
Please enter a password (press [enter] to finish): Bruff
Please enter a password (press [enter] to finish): LBCLBC
Please enter a password (press [enter] to finish):
[’Tulane123’, ’Bruff’, ’LBCLBC’]
[’*********’, ’*****’, ’******’]

for x in txt:

res=res+"*"

return res

myList=[]

while(True):

#reading from user

word=input("Please enter a password (press [enter] to finish): ")

#if it is empty string than break loop

if(len(word)==0):

break

#appending to list

myList.append(word)

res=[]

#iterating the passwords

for x in myList:

#maskig and storing in another list

res.append(mask(x))

#printing list

print(myList)

print(res)
