That's what it currently does, the branch experiments with the encoding approach. > The poem generator uses some bits to determine grammatical structure, > and most of the bits to choose words.

That's almost the way code works now, although it doesn't factor in the bits from the structure. Although it's not mathematically exact, I think that's the best approach. -tom _______________________________________________ Messaging mailing list [email protected] https://moderncrypto.org/mailman/listinfo/messaging
