Tip to generate random password in Kotlin
fun generateRandomPassword(): String {
val chars = "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"
var passWord = ""
for (i in 0..31) {
passWord += chars[Math.floor(Math.random() * chars.length).toInt()]
}
return passWord
}

private val chars = ('a'..'Z') + ('A'..'Z') + ('0'..'9')
private fun randomID(): String = List(16) { chars.random() }.joinToString("")

private val chars = ('a'..'Z') + ('A'..'Z') + ('0'..'9')
private fun randomID(): String = List(16) { chars.random() }.joinToString("")

This worked for me.

// Could be this way for a length of 8 password with visible ascii characters
var password = List(8){(0x21..0x7e).random().toChar()}.joinToString("")
