PHP Markov Chain class
<?php
/*
Levi Thornton from boogybonbon and wordze generously posted his php Markov
Chain class.. unfortunately there is a missing $nn++ thus the class can hang,
the working version is below all credit to Levi for the code, i just fixed a
bug.
Example Usage:
------------------
$string = "The more words you have the better this markov script will run and
produce more unique results on your output. Best of luck and as always enjoy!
~ Levi";
$tmp = new clsMarkov();
$tmp->makeList($string);
$tmp->buildTree();
// :: phraseWriter(YOURSEEDWORD, NUMBEROFWORDSINRESULTSOUTPUT)
print $tmp->phraseWriter('markov', 10);
