README for ASPAVA JavaScript Library

Overview

The ASPAVA is a versatile JavaScript library designed to manipulate and generate sequences of words or phrases. It is a flexible and easy-to-use tool that can be particularly useful for various applications, such as text processing, generative art, and educational purposes.

This library is built around a simple yet powerful class, AspavaGenerator, which provides various methods for manipulating a list of words or phrases. By default, it comes with a predefined list of words, but it can be easily customized to suit your needs.

Features

• Customizable Word List: Start with a default set of words or input your own list.
• Various Manipulation Methods: Includes methods for shuffling, sorting (ascending and descending), changing case, and more.
• Generator Function: Utilize a generator function for iterative word generation.
• Easy to Integrate: Designed as an ES6 module, making it straightforward to include in modern JavaScript projects.

Installation

To use the ASPAVA in your project, simply include it as a module. Ensure that you have a JavaScript environment that supports ES6 modules.

import aspava from "npm:aspava";

Usage

Initialization

Create an instance of AspavaGenerator with the default word list, or provide your own array of words.

import { AspavaGenerator } from "npm:aspava";

const customWords = ["Word1", "Word2", "Word3"];
const aspava = new AspavaGenerator(customWords);

Basic Methods

1. Get a specific word:

   const word = aspava.get(2); // Returns the 3rd word in the list
   

2. Get all words:

   const words = aspava.getAll(); // Returns all words in the list
   

3. Get words as a string:

   const str = aspava.getAsString(); // Returns all words joined by a space
   

4. Get first letters of each word:

   const initials = aspava.getFirstLetters(); // Returns a string of initials
   

Manipulation Methods

1. Shuffle the words:

   aspava.shuffle(); // Randomly shuffles the words
   

2. Sort words in ascending order:

   aspava.ascending(); // Sorts the words alphabetically
   

3. Sort words in descending order:

   aspava.descending(); // Sorts the words in reverse alphabetical order
   

4. Convert words to uppercase:

   aspava.upper(); // Converts all words to uppercase
   

5. Convert words to lowercase:

   aspava.lower(); // Converts all words to lowercase
   

Using the Generator

The generator() method yields a sequence of words up to a specified maximum generation count (default is 6).

for (const word of aspava.generator(6)) {
  console.log(word);
}

Example

Here is a complete example demonstrating various functionalities of the ASPAVA:

import aspava from "npm:aspava";

// Generate 100 words, shuffle them and print each word in uppercase
for (const word of aspava.shuffle().upper().generator(100)) {
  console.log(word);
}

Conclusion

The ASPAVA is a powerful and flexible tool that can be a valuable addition to various JavaScript projects. With its easy-to-use interface and a wide range of functionalities, it opens up many possibilities for creative and practical applications.
