Introducing the Dynarex-password gem

Generate a Dynarex password lookup file and use it to make strong passwords from weak passwords.

In the following example a password lookup file is generated using random 1 or 2 alphanumeric digits associated with each literals a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.

dp = DynarexPassword.new
puts dp.dynarex.to_xml pretty: true
