\alias{stri_rand_lipsum}
\title{A Lorem Ipsum Generator}
\usage{
stri_rand_lipsum(n_paragraphs, start_lipsum = TRUE, nparagraphs = n_paragraphs)
}
\arguments{
\item{n_paragraphs}{single integer, number of paragraphs to generate}
\item{start_lipsum}{single logical value; should the resulting
text start with \emph{Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet}?}
\item{nparagraphs}{[DEPRECATED] alias of \code{n_paragraphs}}
}
\value{
Returns a character vector of length \code{n_paragraphs}.
}
\description{
Generates (pseudo)random \emph{lorem ipsum} text consisting
of a given number of text paragraphs.
}
\details{
\emph{Lorem ipsum} is a dummy text often used as a source
of data for string processing and displaying/lay-outing exercises.
The current implementation is very simple:
words are selected randomly from a Zipf distribution
(based on a set of ca. 190 predefined Latin words).
The number of words per sentence and sentences per paragraph
follows a discretized, truncated normal distribution.
No Markov chain modeling, just i.i.d. word selection.
}
\examples{
cat(sapply(
stri_wrap(stri_rand_lipsum(10), 80, simplify=FALSE),
stri_flatten, collapse='\n'), sep='\n\n')
cat(stri_rand_lipsum(10), sep='\n\n')
}
