I wrote a book.
I have a site called http://www.correlated.org http://www.correlated.org that generates funny statistics based on user-submitted data.
After several years of running it, I got a book deal. It was part of a two-part deal that also involved my other (more successful) book "Experimenting With Babies."
For the Correlated book, I wrote a bunch of code involving some seriously gnarly SQL queries and some Natural Language Generation tools, and it basically spat out the book.
There was, of course, extra manual effort needed, but the code got me about 80% there.
Here's a little more about the book:
