Generate random password

A simple way to generate the password

static string GenerateRandomPassword(int numberOfCharactersInPassword)
{
   if (numberOfCharactersInPassword > 32)
   {
	   throw new ArgumentException("A password of length more than 32 can't be generated");
   }
   string guidWithoutDashes = Guid.NewGuid().ToString("n");
   Console.WriteLine("Guid without dashes :- "+ guidWithoutDashes);
   var chars = new char[numberOfCharactersInPassword];
   var random = new Random();
   for (int i = 0; i < chars.Length; i++)
   {
	   chars[i] = guidWithoutDashes[random.Next(guidWithoutDashes.Length)];
   }
   Console.WriteLine("Random password :- " + new string(chars));
   return new string(chars);
}
