Explanation:

• The generatePassword() function takes a length argument that specifies the length of the password to be generated.
• The uppercase, lowercase, numbers and symbols variables hold strings containing the valid characters for each category.
• The allChars variable concatenates all of the valid characters into a single string.
• The function then iterates length number of times, randomly selecting a character from allChars each time and appending it to the password variable.
• Finally, the password variable is returned as the generated password.
