babblegen

Package Babblegen generates pseudorandom string that looks like alien but readable text.

import "github.com/ohir/babblegen"

Babblegen generated text contains a few repeating words, even in output of gigabyte size. Babblegen is used to generate data to test and analyse searching or formatting code - wherever keeping a huge corpus of real text data is unneeded.

Stability:

BabbleStr output of once supported kind should be stable. (There is a regression test for keeping up to this promise). Adding another type of output will be denoted with the minor version number going up.

Current output types:

• babblegen.AsciiA1 (pure ascii text, latin punctuation and numbers, xorshift_A1 prng)

func BabbleStr

func BabbleStr(size int, seed uint64, btype pick) string

func BabbleStr generates ascii babble of requested size, or a few bytes less than size. Returned babble deterministically depends on the provided seed and chosen btype (there is only one btype for now: babblegen.AsciiA1).

CLI

Command babble [-s size] [-r rng_seed] [-t type] prints to the stdout size long text of type generated from rng_seed. Default size is 64kB, default seed is 977, default type is AsciiA1. Babble command prints also 'Thats all!' marker after the generated babble.

Example babble output:

./babble -s 1024 -r 971
