A simple Markov chain modeller and generator aimed for word and sentence generation.

Project description

Originally a proof of concept, I’ve used this in enough projects that I’ve decided to publish it tomake it easier to import. The name is a play on words similar to Markup/Markdown.

Basic Use

Instantiate with m = markoff.Markov(seeds) where seeds is an iterable of sub-iterables. Each sub-iterable being a chain in the set of chains you want to model.

You can supply it with just one chain or many.

Then use m.generate(max_length=100) to produce a single chain limited to max_length automatically terminating at any character of .!?. You can also supply a terminators argument to make the chain

Example

Code

m = markoff.Markov([['the', 'quick', 'brown', 'fox', 'jumped', 'over', 'the', 'lazy', 'dog', '.']])
[m.generate() i for i in range(5)]

Output

[
    ['the', 'quick', 'brown', 'fox', 'jumped', 'over', 'the', 'lazy', 'dog', '.'],
    ['the', 'quick', 'brown', 'fox', 'jumped', 'over', 'the', 'lazy', 'dog', '.'],
    ['the', 'quick', 'brown', 'fox', 'jumped', 'over', 'the', 'quick', 'brown', 'fox', 'jumped', 'over', 'the', 'lazy', 'dog', '.'],
    ['the', 'lazy', 'dog', '.'],
    ['the', 'lazy', 'dog', '.']
]

Notes

This module is still under development and is mostly for me to play around with and learn Markov Chains. Cheers.
