Description

This piece began as a basic application I wrote. It takes in user-input words--in the case of this flash version, nouns and verbs--and combines them with templates in order to generate texts. This one began as an effort to improve the interface of the application (the qbasic piece was compiled as a DOS_console app) and make it more dynamic. This version is not as extensive as the qbasic one, which used arrays and featured 13 user-selected templates. This one creates a small triad of prose poems.
