Introduction to Markov Chains in F#
A Markov Chain is a stochastic model describing a sequence of possible events, in which the probability of each event depends only on the state attained in the previous event. There are many examples of Markov processes including Google's PageRank algorithm, thermodynamic models and automated speech-recognition systems.
We'll go through a sample implementation of a predictive text system like the one you can find on your phone. Then we will look at how to generate superficially real-looking words.
