Check out John Dunn and his software at http://www.algoart.com/ He has software that does specifically handles DNA sequencing for music; and he's been at it for a long time. He released a product called MusicBox into public domain in 1986 and I believe this software was commonly used to DNA to MIDI sequencing.
There was an MIT study claiming that the strength of passwords was affected by length alone. Because of brute force cracking, the longer the password, the longer it took to break. Consider the three character password where I allowed only numbers, and upper and lower case letters. Each position in the password would have 10 + 26 + 26 = 62 possibilities. A three letter password would have 62 * 62 * 62 combinations. Now, if I required "strength" by requiring the use of a letter, and both upper and lower case, I now have only 10 * 26 * 26 combinations. Requiring "strength" always reduces the set of possible combinations for the password.
