    Base class used by word & phrase generators.

    These objects take a series of options, corresponding
    to those of the :func:`generate` function.
    They act as callables which can be used to generate a password
    or a list of 1+ passwords. They also expose some read-only
    informational attributes.

    Parameters
    ----------
    :param entropy:
        Optionally specify the amount of entropy the resulting passwords
        should contain (as measured with respect to the generator itself).
        This will be used to auto-calculate the required password size.

    :param length:
        Optionally specify the length of password to generate,
        measured as count of whatever symbols the subclass uses (characters or words).
        Note if ``entropy`` requires a larger minimum length,
        that will be used instead.

    :param rng:
        Optionally provide a custom RNG source to use.
        Should be an instance of :class:`random.Random`,
        defaults to :class:`random.SystemRandom`.

    Attributes
    ----------
    .. autoattribute:: length
    .. autoattribute:: symbol_count
    .. autoattribute:: entropy_per_symbol

def genword(entropy=None, length=None, returns=None, **kwds):
    """Generate one or more random passwords.

    This function uses :mod:`random.SystemRandom` to generate
    one or more passwords using various character sets.
    The complexity of the password can be specified
    by size, or by the desired amount of entropy.

    Usage Example::

        >>> # generate a random alphanumeric string with 48 bits of entropy (the default)
        >>> from passlib import pwd
        >>> pwd.genword()
        'DnBHvDjMK6'

        >>> # generate a random hexadecimal string with 52 bits of entropy
        >>> pwd.genword(entropy=52, charset="hex")
        '310f1a7ac793f'

    :param entropy:
        Strength of resulting password, measured in bits of Shannon entropy
        (defaults to 48).  An appropriate **length** value will be calculated
        based on the requested entropy amount, and the size of the character set.

        If both ``entropy`` and ``length`` are specified,
        the stronger value will be used.

        This can also be one of a handful of aliases to predefined
        entropy amounts: ``"weak"`` (24), ``"fair"`` (36),
        ``"strong"`` (48), and ``"secure"`` (56).

    :param length:
        Size of resulting password, measured in characters.
        If omitted, the size is auto-calculated based on the **entropy** parameter.

    :param returns:
        Controls what this function returns:

        * If ``None`` (the default), this function will generate a single password.
        * If an integer, this function will return a list containing that many passwords.
        * If the ``iter`` constant, will return an iterator that yields passwords.

    :param charset:
        The character set to draw from, if not specified explicitly by **chars**.
        Can be any of:

        * ``"ascii_62"`` (the default) -- all digits and ascii upper & lowercase letters.
          Provides ~5.95 entropy per character.

        * ``"ascii_50"`` -- subset which excludes visually similar characters
          (``1IiLl0Oo5S8B``). Provides ~5.64 entropy per character.

        * ``"ascii_72"`` -- all digits and ascii upper & lowercase letters,
          as well as some punctuation. Provides ~6.17 entropy per character.

        * ``"hex"`` -- Lower case hexadecimal.  Providers 4 bits of entropy per character.

    :param chars:

        Optionally specify custom charset as a string of characters.
        This option cannot be combined with **charset**.

            Wordset containing 7776 english words of ~7 letters.
            Constructed by the EFF, it offers ~12.9 bits of entropy per word.

            This wordset (and the other ``"eff_"`` wordsets)
            were `created by the EFF <https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2016/07/new-wordlists-random-passphrases>`_
            to aid in generating passwords.  See their announcement page
            for more details about the design & properties of these wordsets.

        ``"eff_short"``

            Wordset containing 1296 english words of ~4.5 letters.
            Constructed by the EFF, it offers ~10.3 bits of entropy per word.

        ``"eff_prefixed"``

            Wordset containing 1296 english words of ~8 letters,
            selected so that they each have a unique 3-character prefix.
            Constructed by the EFF, it offers ~10.3 bits of entropy per word.

        ``"bip39"``

            Wordset of 2048 english words of ~5 letters,
            selected so that they each have a unique 4-character prefix.
            Published as part of Bitcoin's `BIP 39 <https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0039/english.txt>`_,
            this wordset has exactly 11 bits of entropy per word.

            This list offers words that are typically shorter than ``"eff_long"``
            (at the cost of slightly less entropy); and much shorter than
            ``"eff_prefixed"`` (at the cost of a longer unique prefix).

        This option cannot be combined with **wordset**.

    :param sep:
