Crate cgisf_lib

A random sentence generator, still without commas.

Has three functions:

• gen_sentence(), to generate a sentence;
• gen_word(), to generate a word of a certain kind; and
• gen_structure(), to generate the structure of a sentence based on your SentenceConfig.

cgisf is a reference to ‘Colourless Green Ideas Sleep Furiously’ - a 1957 example of a sentence that is grammatical but makes no sense. Similarly, don’t expect these sentences to make that much sense either.

Usage

First, add this to your Cargo.toml

[dependencies]
cgisf = "0.2.1"

Then,

use cgisf_lib::{gen_sentence, SentenceConfigBuilder};
print!("{}", gen_sentence(SentenceConfigBuilder::random().build()));

A deeper explanation can be found in the individual functions’ pages.

Enums

Structure

Functions
