jound 0.1.0

Word generator using a Markov chain

Jound is a Python program which can invent new words from the analysis of a list of words.

It can analyze a text and assemble all words it contains to a file. This list of words can then be analyzed in order to generate a statistical file which records the number of occurrences of each letter after a particular combination of two letters. Finally, the statistical file can be used in order to generate words using a Markov chain.
