 Passphrase & Password generation library for GoLang.
 
 ## Passphrases
+
+Passphrases are made up of 2 or more words connected by a separator and may have
+capitalized words, and numbers. These are easier for humans to remember compared
+to passwords.
+
+The `passphrase` package helps generate these and supports the following rules
+that be used during generation:
+* Capitalize words used in the passphrase (foo -> Foo)
+* Use a custom dictionary of words instead of built-in English dictionary
+* Use X number of Words
+* Insert a random number behind one of the words
+* Use a custom separator
+* Use words with a specific length-range
+
+### Example
 ```golang
 	g, err := passphrase.NewGenerator(
 		passphrase.WithCapitalizedWords(true),

 ## Passwords
+
+Passwords are a random amalgamation of characters.
+
+The `password` package helps generate these and supports the following rules
+that be used during generation:
+* Use a specific character-set
+* Restrict the length of the password
+* Use *at least* X lower-case characters
+* Use *at least* X upper-case characters
+* Use *at least* X and *at most* Y symbols

 ```golang

-### Sequential Passwords
+## Odometer
+
+Odometer helps generate all possible string combinations of characters given a
+list of characters and the expected length of the string.
+
+The `odometer` package provides optimal interfaces to move through the list:
+* Decrement()
+* DecrementN(n)
+* GoTo(n)
+* Increment()
+* IncrementN(n)
+* etc.
 
+### Example
 ```golang
-	s, err := sequencer.New(
-		sequencer.WithCharset(charset.AllChars.WithoutAmbiguity()),
-		sequencer.WithLength(8),
-	)
-	if err != nil {
-		panic(err.Error())
-	}
+	o := odometer.New(charset.AlphabetsUpper, 8)
+
 	for idx := 1; idx <= 10; idx++ {
-		fmt.Printf("Password #%3d: %#v\n", idx, s.Get())
+		fmt.Printf("Password #%3d: %#v\n", idx, o.String())
 
-		if !s.HasNext() {
+		if o.AtEnd() {
 			break
 		}
-		s.Next()
+		o.Increment()
