Of the useless is a useless linguistic and programing project encompassing various facets of my entry to the 2015 Nanogenmo. It is divided into the Words Of The Useless and Numbers Of The Useless.

Working on both a dictionary of pointlessly complex words. And an index of incredibly long number names.

Chapter I: Words Of The Useless

Words Of The Useless is a script that generates new english words by combining various prefixes and suffixes, and try to form definitions of these newly created terms. https://github.com/XXIIVV/OTU-Words

Chapter II: Numbers Of The Useless

Numbers Of The Useless is a script that generates the name of numbers with the length of 50'000 characters. It uses various extensions of the short word form, and ISQ inspired names, to create the names of numbers which have never previously been catalogued. https://github.com/XXIIVV/OTU-Numbers

Chapter III: Elements Of The Useless

Started working on a list of impossible elements and chemical bounds.

I wonder if each element has a discoverer and a story its discovery.

neauoire commented 8 years ago

I like that idea a lot. I will generate back stories.
