Procedural Name Generator

Post by SelfDotX »

Markov process-based procedural name generator.

Small, fast(ish) name generator that uses name/word lists as training data and produces 'reasonable' names/words based on the training data.

This is a port of a C# Implementation minus a few QoL functions that can be easily implemented. Prints out 10 names to console.

Includes a names list with 5000 entries for training.

Ah, thanks. Rotlove can also do this (allows you to put in your own data too) but the lib is still good. :)
