6.1: Intro to Session 6: Markov Chains - Programming with Text
This video introduces Session 6: Markov Chains (http://shiffman.net/a2z/markov). It is part of the ITP course "Programming from A to Z". A Markov Chain is a broad concept, in this series I will demonstrate it as a means to generate text algorithmically, using n-grams and probability.
