if it were anything but your password, I would suggest you use Keyboard Viewer to check for stuck keys.


Use the Keyboard Viewer on Mac - Apple Support


in this case you will need a different keyboard to log in -- any USB keyboard including one from Windows can handle alpha and numerics in the same way.
