Markov chains! #54

Closed juliasilge closed 6 years ago

juliasilge commented 7 years ago

Hello there, Roel! I love TNG so much, and your post was so fun. Just FYI I have been experimenting with Markov chains with quite a lot of success using this package: https://github.com/abresler/markovifyR Text generation is so much fun. 😃

RMHogervorst commented 7 years ago

Yes! It is! That package is much better at it then what I did, I believe.

RMHogervorst commented 7 years ago

Although I don't like the dependency on python.

juliasilge commented 7 years ago

It's true, but I have found packages like this that use reticulate to work very smoothly from R.

Yeah I probably have misconfigured some python stuff (anaconda and pip , messing with virtualenv ) you probably know the deal.

I have recently used your book (and david too of course) on tidy textmining for a non text related thing. I love how the tidy principles can be used everywhere! Very nice work
