This Go library converts byte slices into human-friendly phrases. . The primary purpose is to assist with the generation of cryptographically secure passwords. The threshold for a cryptographically secure password is between 128 and 256 bits, which when converted to base64 is 22-43 random characters. Random characters are both difficult to remember and subject to error when spoken or written down; slurring or sloppy handwriting can make it difficult to recover a password.
