## Overview

A small command-line Markov text generator: the user supplies text files, trains a word-transition model, then uses that model to generate and save text. The sampled scripts show the file reads, model write/read, and generated-text write; the README documents the two-command workflow.

Main entry points: [`MarkovChainTrainer.py`](https://github.com/itsmerockyfiles/markovchain/blob/main/MarkovChainTrainer.py) (Model trainer), [`MarkovChain.py`](https://github.com/itsmerockyfiles/markovchain/blob/main/MarkovChain.py) (Text generator), [`model.json`](https://github.com/itsmerockyfiles/markovchain/blob/main/model.json) (Transition model), [`MarkovChainTexts`](https://github.com/itsmerockyfiles/markovchain/tree/main/MarkovChainTexts) (Text corpus)
