--description--

Add a third tuple to the constraints list. Use the uppercase parameter as the first item and a regex pattern that matches a single uppercase letter as the second item.

--hints--

You should add a third tuple to the constraints list using uppercase as the first item and a character class that matches a single uppercase letter as the second item.

js
({ test: () => assert.match(code, /constraints\s*=\s*\[\s*\(\s*nums\s*,\s*("|')\[0-9\]\1\s*\)\s*,\s*\(\s*lowercase\s*,\s*("|')\[a-z\]\2\s*\)\s*,\s*\(\s*uppercase\s*,\s*("|')\[A-Z\]\3\s*\)\s*,?\s*\]/) })

    # Define the possible characters for the password
    letters = string.ascii_letters

    # Combine all characters
    all_characters = letters + digits + symbols

    while True:
        password = ''
        # Generate password
        for _ in range(length):
