This program generates random English language sentences,
using a dictionary (provided by the user) of ten basic word
groups (A - J). The dictionary is used in conjunction with
a random number generator and a syntactical algorithm to
provide an output of randomly constructed English language
sentences.
The program is an excellent vehicle for computer demon-
stration purposes. It may also be used in English teaching
programs to aid students in perceiving sentence structure
and errors in the use of words.
