Editing Markov chain (section)

===Markov text generators===
Markov processes can also be used to [[natural language generation|generate superficially real-looking text]] given a sample document. Markov processes are used in a variety of recreational "[[parody generator]]" software (see [[dissociated press]], Jeff Harrison,<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.fieralingue.it/modules.php?name=Content&pa=list_pages_categories&cid=111|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101206043430/http://www.fieralingue.it/modules.php?name=Content&pa=list_pages_categories&cid=111|url-status=dead |title=Poet's Corner – Fieralingue|archive-date=December 6, 2010}}</ref> [[Mark V.
