The gibberish (nonsense text) presented here is generated by a remarkably simple computer program. Given some sample text, say Shakespeare, as input, the computer generates output which is random, but which has the same statistical distribution of characters or combinations of characters. (A character may be a letter, a digit, a space, a punctuation mark, etc.)

  • Level 1 gibberish: The output has the same distribution of single characters as the input. For example, the probability of seeing a character like "e" or "z" or "." will be approximately the same in the output as in the input.
  • Level 2 gibberish: The output has the same distribution of character pairs as the input. For example, the probability of seeing a pair like "th" or "te" or "t." will be approximately the same in the output as in the input.
  • Level n gibberish: The output has the same distribution of groups of ncharacters (n-tuples) as the input.
The algorithm is a letter-based Markov text generator. Level n gibberish is a Markov chain of order n-1.

It is amazing how well this simple algorithm works, even for very low level numbers. For example, at level 2, you can easily recognize different languages. At level 3 you can recognize the styles of different authors.

For even more fun, the gibberish generator can easily blend two different languages or two different authors. If the input is simply the text from author A followed by the text from author B, the output will be a smooth blend of the two.

To see some samples of plain and blended gibberish, go to Gibberish Samples.

To generate your own gibberish, go to Gibberish Generator

You can see my source code in GibGen.htm and GibGen.js (JavaScript). My implementation of the algorithm is simple (and inefficient). To generate level n gibberish do the following. Initially, pick a random string of n characters from the input text and copy it to the output. Now start looping. Repeat the following steps. Set the target string to be last n-1 characters written. Find all the occurrences of the target string in the input text. Randomly select one of these matching positions. Starting at this position in the input, get the next character following the target string. Copy this character to the output text. Repeat.

A final thought: Is the human brain simply a level 100 gibberish generator?

NGL I reported this post thinking it was RWTM because it seemed like the sort of self reply he would make to himself.
 
Or nah. Please no sweetie. A thank you is just fine 🤘. Just know I took the time out to try to help you. I don’t like it when coworkers touch you to show appreciation or what not. Just say thank you, please. (They stop once I tell them it makes me feel uncomfortable). I’m just looking for someone my age. Back in IL, I was tied down for five years with someone who was 11 years older than I am. I’m Gucci. I was young and dumb and she was hot as hell. Yeah I didn’t know about all the baggage that was coming along. I have no kids she had two. Lol. You live and you learn’.
Oh sweetie, I am sorry to hear about your lady problems. Don’t sweat it. There are plenty of single mothers out there.
