Reflexicons

Dev CI Code Style: Blue

Background

Reflexicons (reflexive lexicons, as coined by Lee Sallows) are self-enumerating word lists that describes its own letter frequency. We start with arbitrary text on one page, and the next page enumerates the number of letters (written out in full) on the previous page, and so on and so forth. A autogram is a true self-descriptive sentence. When iterating over "pages" of the state of a reflexicon, one may encounter loops. An autogram is then one of these loop whose period/cycle length is one.

For more information on reflexicons more eloquently, see Lee Sallows' article on reflexicons.

Quick Start

```julia-repl julia> using Reflexicons

julia> R = ReflexiconState("x") # construct a reflexicon with an initial state PAGE 1 ┌───┐ │ x │ └───┘

julia> next!(R) # go to the next page, modifying PAGE 2 ┌───────┐ │ one x │ └───────┘

julia> next!(R) PAGE 3 ┌───────┐ │ one e │ │ one n │ │ one o │ │ one x │ └───────┘

julia> first!(R) PAGE 1 ┌───┐ │ x │ └───┘ ```

For construction of autograms, see autogram.jl.
