A simple markov chain utility for text generation in C.
Probably a nightmare of a codebase but most of this was written while high so who cares.
make markov> markov.exe is-char[bool] N[int] iters(int) init_state[string] [text files]is_char determines whether or not each state in the markov chain will be 'N' characters or 'N' words. Iters is the number of states to sample/ generate. Iters=25 will generate 25 new states and appened them to a string, for example. init_state is the initial string. If init_state is {RAND}, a random initial state will be selected. If {START} is chosen, the start of the training data will be used.
example usage,
./markov 0 2 50 {RAND} data/shakespeare.txt
