Yup, those are Markov Chains. Not to sound snotty or mean, but... so what? Why should we be interested?
Looks kinda like you followed a tutorial and did a write up.
- anaerobicover 6y agoIt's a well-written practical demonstration of an interesting thing that [some people might not know about yet][0], with links for further reading. What's the problem? [0]:https://xkcd.com/346/ https://xkcd.com/346/

- anaerobicover 6y agoDangit, that's the one I meant to link to! I copied the link without checking. Thanks!
- kleer001 6y agoNo problem. Didn't say I had one. Just curious, wanted more information about why OP posted, what made their post special. Still, didn't seem very novel or deep. Might as well have been someone posting their first timing circuit test, water/air tunnel simulation, or computer vision project. So, good for them. But I thought HN wasn't a glad handing cheerleader chorus. Searching for Introduction to Markov Chains gets tons of hits at various levels of explanation that are nearly a decade old.
- healeycodes 6y agoI tried to code up Markov chains when I was first learning to program but I found that many resources didn't have clear/terse enough code snippets. Most articles also didn't walk you from zero to understanding. So I'm trying to fill that gap and help out anyone who is trying to learn the basics.
- gsich 6y agoThe same result generated with "AI" doesn't get this question.
- kleer001 6y agoExamples? IMHO they probably should if they're this basic.
