Correct me if I'm wrong, but if we assume letters only in the generators
using this method, aren't there roughly 26! * 26! * 26! * 26! * 26! *
26! * 26! * 26! different combinations (which would equal gigabytes of
memory used?). Then through in the numbers also and you have 36! on
each one. Use upper and lower case and it's 52!, upper and lower case +
numbers and signs above numbers = 72!^8, throw in ctrl-characters,
+,=,|, etc and you've got a file that not too many systems can handle.
Now if you hard coded it to generate the numbers sequentially, then
check it against the possibilities without writing it to a file, it
would still take forever, but it approaches possible limits.
