Pick characters from password
MIT License
A simple site to let you pick specific characters from a password.
This is for when using masked passwords and you're prompted to give characters 18, 7 and 12 from a password.
I put this together for just that, paste or type in your password then pick out your character you need.

For Have I Been Pwnd check, use the pwndpasswords API https://api.pwnedpasswords.com/range/5BAA6
To use pwndpasswords
, SHA-1 the password then pass the first five
characters to the API then check the remainder of the SHA-1 against
the results of the API
So, the SHA-1 of the password password
is
5BAA61E4C9B93F3F0682250B6CF8331B7EE68FD8
take the first five chars
5BAA6
and pass to the API https://api.pwnedpasswords.com/range/5BAA6
You will be presented with a range of SHA-1'd passwords that contain
that fist five chars. Then you need to check the remainder
1E4C9B93F3F0682250B6CF8331B7EE68FD8
against the results.
1E4C9B93F3F0682250B6CF8331B7EE68FD8:3533661
The number after the colon is the amount of times it has been found in password dumps.
