Markov Chain Tester

Markov Chain tester

Paste a passage or drop in a .txt file and using markov chains this website will render text based on the statistical probabilities. Markov chains track which words tend to follow which throughout the text, then uses those odds to generate new text.
This code uses the Rita.js library. If you want to mess with the code you can see it here. You can also play with this p5js sketch.

Source text 0 words

An n-gram is just a chunk of n consecutive words from your text (a 1-gram is a single word, a 2-gram is a pair, and so on). In a Markov chain, n controls how much context the model remembers before predicting the next word. lower n makes output looser and more random, higher n keeps it closer to the original phrasing but needs more source text to work well.
