Description Author

This package can be used to determine if words in a string are real or made up.

It provides two classes to analise individual words or sentences to evaluate the presence of vowels and consonants.

The classes provide statistics about the string and a score that can be used to determine if the words really exist or are invented due to the presence of many consecutive consonants.

Sometimes it is necessary to determine if a word was written by a real person or is not a real a word.

This class provides a solution to evaluate the probability of a word or a phrase being real or made up.

It analyses the presence of vowels and consonants and returns a score that can be low if there are too many consecutive consonants.

VowCon

This package provides two classes which can be used for analyzing text with regards to patterns of vowels and consonants. In natural language, there is a certain balance between the two: there are rarely very many consecutive consonants or vowels in a real word.

Many spambots include a randomly generated word in their payload, these words will fail the tests provided by this package.
