Welcome to tbaitleu/marcov-chain git page

By default this program reads from stdin the whole text and generate the text according to Markov Chain algorithm.

Outcomes:

• Program prints generated text according to the Markov Chain algorithm.

Notes:

• Suffix length is ALWAYS 1 word
• Default prefix length is 2 words.
• Default starting prefix is the first N words of the text, where N is the length of the prefix.
• Default number of maximum words is 100.

Here is the little instraction how to use this text generator

1. Firstly please build executible file if it haven't been builded yet.

go build build -o markovchain .

2. Since it recieves dictionary data from stdin, You'll need to pipe the content of file where you store your dictory data:

For example:

cat the-great-gatsby.txt | ./markovchain

3. It has three flags (values) you may change:

• -l flag ---- amount of sybols in prefix. Default value is 2 (vary from 1 till 5)
• -w flag ---- amount of word in generated text including prefix. Default value is 100 (vary from prefix value till 10000)
• -p flag ---- you may edit prefix. It can NOT be longer than prefix length set by -l flag. It is firs N word of the dictionary, where N is the length of the prefix.

For example:

cat the_great_gatsby.txt | ./markovchain -w 10 -p "to something funny" -l 3

Output:

to something funny the last two days," remarked Wilson. "That's

• 10 words
• prefix consist of 3 words
• it starts generation from custom prefix "to something funny"
