Week 2 Homework

Assignment

1. Create a text processing machine as a single page app and/or design an exercise around regular expressions. Some ideas are:

• Chop up a text into words using split() and rebuild the text as separate <span> elements that you can interact with individually. Here is the example I developed in class and a similar sketch I made with this week's videos.
• Create a programmatic version of the algorithm you invented in class and/or for week 1 homework.
• Analyze the statistical properties of a text like in the Flesch Index example.
• Create a mad libs generator.
• Create a "word replacer" (all male pronouns with female, all fruits with vegetables, etc.)
• Taking inspiration from the Pirate Translator, re-imagine a text using replace().
• Investigate RitaJS to see what kinds of metadata you can glean from a string. Here is a quick and dirty example that shows you how to get parts of speech tags for words.

2. In preparation for next week, add a link to an API or some data source (even just data that appears in raw form on a web page) that interests you. I'll use this list to prepare examples for next week.
