NAME

Algorithm::MarkovChain - Object oriented Markov chain generator

SYNOPSIS

            

              
              
use Algorithm::MarkovChain;
my $chain = Algorithm::MarkovChain::->new();
# learn about things from @symbols
$chain->seed(symbols => \@symbols,
             longest => 6);
# attempt to tell me something about the sky
my @newness = $chain->spew(length   => 20,
                           complete => [ qw( the sky is ) ]);
            
          

INSTALLATION

and if all goes well
