Yes, a system which does this has to build a Markov chain from a data set and then traverse it. > Does anyone know of any modules or packages that include markov tables > for creating patterns like shown above. Any program that actually uses Markov chains to generate new text based on existing input as you've described will necessarily create a Markov chain. So if what you want is the Markov chain itself, then it's already in there somewhere. > P.S.
