{{task}} [[Category:Text processing]]
Even today, with proportional fonts and complex layouts, there are still [[Template:Lines_too_long|cases]] where you need to wrap text at a specified column.
;Basic task: The basic task is to wrap a paragraph of text in a simple way in your language.
If there is a way to do this that is built-in, trivial, or provided in a standard library, show that. Otherwise implement the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_wrap#Minimum_length minimum length greedy algorithm from Wikipedia.]
Show your routine working on a sample of text at two different wrap columns.
;Extra credit: Wrap text using a more sophisticated algorithm such as the Knuth and Plass TeX algorithm. If your language provides this, you get easy extra credit, but you ''must reference documentation'' indicating that the algorithm is something better than a simple minimimum length algorithm.
If you have both basic and extra credit solutions, show an example where the two algorithms give different results.
360 Assembly
The program uses one ASSIST macro (XPRNT) to keep the code as short as possible.

In olden times when wishing still
helped one, there lived a king
whose daughters were all,
beautiful, but the youngest was so
beautiful that the sun itself,
which has seen so much, was
astonished whenever it shone in her
face. Close by the king's castle
lay a great dark forest, and under
an old lime tree in the forest was
a well, and when the day was very
warm, the king's child went out
into the forest and sat down by the
side of the cool fountain, and when
she was bored she took a golden
ball, and threw it up on high and
caught it, and this ball was her
favorite plaything.
Ada
The specification of a class '''Word_Wrap.Basic''' in a package '''Word_Wrap''':
generic
with procedure Put_Line(Line: String);
package Word_Wrap is
type Basic(Length_Of_Output_Line: Positive) is tagged private;
procedure Push_Word(State: in out Basic; Word: String);
procedure New_Paragraph(State: in out Basic);
procedure Finish(State: in out Basic);
private
type Basic(Length_Of_Output_Line: Positive) is tagged record
Line: String(1 .. Length_Of_Output_Line);
Size: Natural := 0; -- Line(1 .. Size) is relevant
Top_Of_Paragraph: Boolean := True;
end record;
end Word_Wrap;
The implementation of that package:
package body Word_Wrap is
procedure Push_Word(State: in out Basic; Word: String) is
begin
if Word'Length + State.Size >= State.Length_Of_Output_Line then
Put_Line(State.Line(1 .. State.Size));

State.Size := Word'Length;
elsif State.Size > 0 then
State.Line(State.Size+1 .. State.Size+1+Word'Length) := ' ' & Word;
State.Size := State.Size + 1 + Word'Length;
else
State.Line(1 .. Word'Length) := Word;
State.Size := Word'Length;
end if;
State.Top_Of_Paragraph := False;
end Push_Word;
procedure New_Paragraph(State: in out Basic) is
begin
Finish(State);
if not State.Top_Of_Paragraph then
Put_Line("");
State.Top_Of_Paragraph := True;
end if;

J := J + 1;
end loop;
First := + Str(I .. J);
-- write output param Rest
Rest := + Skip_Leading_Spaces(Str(J+1 .. Str'Last));
end Split;
procedure Print(S: String) is
begin

Even today, with proportional fonts and complex layouts, there are still
cases where you need to wrap text at a specified column. The basic task
is to wrap a paragraph of text in a simple way in your language. If
there is a way to do this that is built-in, trivial, or provided in a
standard library, show that. Otherwise implement the minimum length
greedy algorithm from Wikipedia.
Show your routine working on a sample of text at two different wrap
columns.
Extra credit! Wrap text using a more sophisticated algorithm such as the
Knuth and Plass TeX algorithm. If your language provides this, you get
easy extra credit, but you must reference documentation indicating that
the algorithm is something better than a simple minimimum length
algorithm.
If you have both basic and extra credit solutions, show an example where
the two algorithms give different results.
Note that this solution properly deals with multi-paragraph inputs.
For more sophisticated algorithms (the extra credit), one could derive
a class '''Word_Wrap.

IN: scratchpad "Most languages in widespread use today are applicative languages

es, a function call is made by simply writing the name of the function; the para
meters are implicit, and they have to already be on the stack when the call is m
ade. The result of the function call (if any) is then left on the stack after th

Most languages in widespread use today are applicative
languages: the central construct in the language is some
form of function call, where a function is applied to a set
of parameters, where each parameter is itself the result of
a function call, the name of a variable, or a constant. In
stack languages, a function call is made by simply writing
the name of the function; the parameters are implicit, and
they have to already be on the stack when the call is made.
The result of the function call (if any) is then left on
the stack after the function returns, for the next function
to consume, and so on. Because functions are invoked simply

## Fortran
Early Fortran provided no facility for manipulating text until the A format code was introduced by Fortran 4 that allowed characters to be read into variables, which could then be manipulated and written out. F77 introduced the CHARACTER data type which however did not have a notion of a variable-length string, other than via the programmer keeping track with auxiliary variables. F90 enabled the introduction via user-written functions and data types of a string-like facility, whereby a CHARACTER type variable would be resized on assignment. F95 formalised this facility as a part of the language.
There are no facilities for "flowing" text on output according to a specified width, though various direct methods are possible. For instance, given a variable containing thousands of characters,
```Fortran
CHARACTER*12345 TEXT
...
DO I = 0,120
WRITE (6,*) TEXT(I*80 + 1:(I + 1)*80)
END DO
```
would write forth the text with eighty characters per line, paying no attention to the content when it splits a line.
The following is in the style of F77 except for the use of the MODULE facility to simplify the usage of auxiliary variables. Otherwise, if there is not to be a simple mainline only, scratchpads would have to be shared via COMMON or the proliferation of a tedious number of parameters. The specification calls for the flowing of a single paragraph of text, but this routine is based on one written in the 1980s for the printing of programme source files (in Fortran or pl/i) whereby large blocks of comments would be recognised and re-flowed so as to fill more of the width of a 132-column lineprinter, thus allowing a broader canvas for documentation and yet, whenever there were changes, the source file did not have to be reformatted each time.
The basic ploy is that FLOW receives a wad of text and sends it forth without exceeding a specified WIDTH, holding any tail end until the next blob is supplied to be tacked on the end, with a separating space supplied. However, if a blob starts with a space this is deemed to be the start of a new paragraph, so any waiting text is rolled first even if a short line. To flush out any waiting text at the end, invoke FLOW with a blank (or null) parameter.
The source-listing programmes simply appended the incoming text to the end of the scratchpad, knowing that source files do not present long records, but here an incoming text may be much larger than any reasonable scratchpad so there is assessment of the available space first. Choosing a cut position is problematic. The scheme here is to split at spaces only; a more accomplished method might classify letters, digits and decimal points as being sequences that ought not be split. And should it be O'-hara or O-'hara? Still more difficult is proper hyphenation: des-ert (noun) or de-sert (verb) - the grammar of human languages being non-computable.
Should there be no suitable split in the fragment being appended, then, arbitrarily, if that fragment is short then it is not appended: the line is rolled with trailing spaces. But if it has more than six characters, it will be placed and a crude chop made.

For text flowing purposes the actual source lister expected to find block comments with a space after the C (so that column three was the first character of the text to be flowed), so the above source would be listed as-is - except for overprinting key words and underlining, easy with a lineprinter but much more difficult on modern printers that expect a markup language instead.

'''Solution 2: Using Inject - Functional Style'''
A solution using the groovy list.inject method which corresponds to foldLeft in other languages.
```groovy
String wordWrap(str, width=80) {
str.tokenize(' ').inject([[]]) { rows, word ->
if (rows.last().join(' ').length() + word.length() <= width) rows.last() << word else rows << [word]
rows
}.collect { it.join(' ') }.join('\n')
}
```
this solution shows off the more functional aspects of groovy.
'''Solution 3: Ninja Style - @TailRecursive and performant'''
For very large strings (say Shakespeare's complete works which comes in around 7MB in text), the two above solutions are not very performant as they copy large portions of the input string multiple times.
Throwing away all readability, using a number of groovy tricks (abusing default parameter values etc) and just going for performance and terseness of code we get the following:
```groovy
import groovy.transform.TailRecursive
import static java.lang.Math.min
@TailRecursive
String wordWrap(str, w, i=w, b=''<<'', len=str.length()-1, x=0) {
b.setCharAt(x = (b << str[b.length()..i]).lastIndexOf(' '), '\n' as char)
b.length()+w >= len ? b << str[i..-1] : wordWrap(str, w, min(x+w+1, len), b, len, 0)
}
```
Should be noted that this is not idiomatic groovy or a recommended way of programming, but it is interesting as an exercise.
Assuming width of 80, we essentially jump 80 characters forward in the text, look backwards for the first space we find, replace that space with a newline, jump forwards 80 characters from the newly inserted newline, look backwards for a space etc.
This means we never look at every character in the input text and we just replace spaces with newlines as we go.
Note that this solution uses recursion and the @TailRecursive annotation which expands the recursive calls into a non-recursive loop at runtime, thus avoiding stack overflow exceptions for large data sets. Note also that the following expressions are equivalent:
```groovy
def a = new StringBuilder()
def a = '' << ''
```
Should also be noted that this solution ignores and breaks for the case where words are longer than a line. I have a version which takes this case into account but I figured this was unreadable enough.
Testing can be done as above with the exception that the second wrap width parameter is required.
As an anecdotal baseline for a performance comparison, running 7MB of English text (Shakespeare) through the first algorithm 10 times takes around 3100ms on my current workstation (with a number of warm-up iterations excluded) and running the last algorithm through the same exercise takes around 230ms.

String wodehouse="Old Mr MacFarland (_said Henry_) started the place fifteen years ago. He was a widower with one son and what you might call half a daughter. That's to say, he had adopted her. Katie was her name, and she was the child of a dead friend of his. The son's name was Andy. A little freckled nipper he was when I first knew him--one of those silent kids that don't say much and have as much obstinacy in them as if they were mules. Many's the time, in them days, I've clumped him on the head and told him to do something; and he didn't run yelling to his pa, same as most kids would have done, but just said nothing and went on not doing whatever it was I had told him to do. That was the sort of disposition Andy had, and it grew on him. Why, when he came back from Oxford College the time the old man sent for him--what I'm going to tell you about soon--he had a jaw on him like the ram of a battleship. Katie was the kid for my money.

In jq, all strings are Unicode strings, for which the length is calculated as the number of codepoints.
```jq
# Simple greedy algorithm.
# Note: very long words are not truncated.
# input: a string
# output: an array of strings
def wrap_text(width):
reduce splits("\\s+") as $word
([""];
.[length-1] as $current
| ($word|length) as $wl
| (if $current == "" then 0 else 1 end) as $pad
| if $wl + $pad + ($current|length) <= width
then .[-1] += ($pad * " ") + $word
else . + [ $word]
end );

## Lingo
Lingo/Director has 2 visual components for displaying text, text and field members. Both can soft-wrap text directly. In cases where you need a hard-wrapped representation of a text, this could e.g. be implemented like this:
(Note: this solution is meant for proportional fonts and based on actual text rendering. For the more trivial case of non-proportial font word wrapping, just pass a non-proportinal font like e.g. Courier in the 'style' argument)
```lingo
-- in some movie script
----------------------------------------
-- Wraps specified text into lines of specified width (in px), returns lines as list of strings
-- @param {string} str
-- @param {integer} pixelWidth
-- @param {propList} [style]
-- @return {list}
----------------------------------------
on hardWrapText (str, pixelWidth, style)
if voidP(style) then style = [:]
lines = []
-- create a new field member
m = new(#field)
m.text = str
m.rect = rect(0,0,pixelWidth,0)
-- assign style props (if not specified, defaults are used)
repeat with i = 1 to style.count
m.setProp(style.getPropAt(i), style[i])
end repeat
-- create an invisible temporary sprite
s = channel(1).makeScriptedSprite(m)
s.loc = point(0,0)
s.visible = false
_movie.updateStage()
-- get the wrapped lines
charPos = 0
repeat with y = 0 to s.height-1
n = s.pointToChar(point(pixelWidth-1, y))
if n<>charPos then
lines.add(str.char[charPos+1..n])
charPos = n
end if
end repeat
channel(1).removeScriptedSprite()
return lines
end
```

## M2000 Interpreter
M2000 Environment (where actual a M2000 script executed) provide the means to print proportional text, in console, in layer in console form, in user windows layers, and in printer paper. To render proportional text we can use:
Print statement with styles from 4 to 10 (so 0 to 3 are non proportional, by default we use 0). Styles applied with $() print's internal function. So a Print $(4), set from current position the proportional style. This has word wrap, but stop at wrapping. Print statement not used for documents (or strings with paragraphs). We can print text with diacritics.
Report statement is the default renderer for text. Not only render text, but can be used to calculate the number of lines before actual render text. Report also prints in characters row, and can be used with Double statement to change temporary to Double height font. Also use Italic and Bold state. Also can print text with diacritics as Print statement can. Lead space from paragraph stay there, and spaces can be get bigger or smaller from original size, but not to small. Because we can give the width of the output (in character units, or in twips units), we can find easy the bounding box. Report statement when rendering to anything except console, stop rendering, after scrolling the 3/4 of layer height (the lower part which can scroll, maybe all the height, depends on setting split screen function), waiting for user to press space or a mouse button.
Legend Statement use Font and font size (Mode in M2000) for each call, and print text in graphic position, using alignment but not word warp, and we can use rotation. Functions size.x() and size.y() can return then dimension of the bounding box,
We can use controls on forms to render text, and EditBox has word wrap, and a state when no edit allowed, we can view/scroll text only.
This example use a text in a$, where first remove line breaks. Then set font to Tahoma, and console size to 80 characters by 50 lines, and display the current font size (automatic environment insert line space between text rows). Also display state for Bold and Italic. Then we get the text from 9th row, as proportional text, italic, centered with a width for lines as 60 characters width. Then ask for a keypress.
At the second phase, in a loop, render text twice, the first as is, the second changing color in each line. To perform that, it render once without displaying, get from ReportLines the number of lines, and then execute a for loop and do a partial display, but each time rendering starts from first line, and display from the line we choose, for lines we choose (first choose lines and next using Line choose the first line). Until now we didn't get somewhere in memory the actual lines, only in layer, displayed.
At the third phase, we can get in a document variable all lines (where actual made each line break). We can find the length in twips for each line, but this is with spaces with standard width. Report use spaces smaller or bigger than normal space, and do a distribution of pixels that can't be fit in all spaces chunks, mostly at the right chunks. So even using a non proportional font, we get from Report at rendering proportional spacings.
The inner editor of M2000 environment also works with Word Warp and can change it with F1 any time. Also EditBox can change with F1 word wrap, in user forms (windows).
All of these statements not handle tab character (9) as tab. Editor change tab with spaces, and Print/report/Legend prints tab as a square character (as for 9.4 version of M2000 Environment and Interpreter).

In olden times when wishing still helped one, there lived a king
whose daughters were all beautiful, but the youngest was so beautiful
that the sun itself, which has seen so much, was astonished whenever
it shone in her face. Close by the king's castle lay a great dark forest,
and under an old lime-tree in the forest was a well, and when the day
was very warm, the king's child went out into the forest and sat down
by the side of the cool fountain, and when she was bored she took a
golden ball, and threw it up on high and caught it, and this ball was
her favorite plaything.

### Pipeline Version
Slightly modified the previous to become the guts of this version. Now there is a default (80 characters) and a lower and upper limit for the -Width parameter. An unlimited number of strings may be passed to the helper function, New-WordWrap, through the pipeline.
```PowerShell
function Out-WordWrap
{
[CmdletBinding()]
[OutputType([string])]
Param
(
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true,
ValueFromPipeline=$true,
Position=0)]
[string]
$Text,
[Parameter(Mandatory=$false,
Position=1)]
[ValidateRange(16,160)]
[int]
$Width = 80
)
Begin
{
function New-WordWrap ([string]$Text, [int]$Width)
{
[string[]]$words = $Text.Split()
[string]$output = ""
[int]$remaining = $Width
foreach ($word in $words)
{
if($word.Length + 1 -gt $remaining)
{
$output += "`n$word "
$remaining = $Width - ($word.Length + 1)
}
else
{
$output += "$word "
$remaining -= $word.Length + 1
}
}
return "$output`n"
}
}
Process
{
foreach ($paragraph in $Text)
{
New-WordWrap -Text $paragraph -Width $Width
}
}
}
```
Grab some data and send it down the pipeline:

## R
### Using the base library
Use strwrap():
```rsplus>
x <- "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Donec a diam lectus. Sed sit amet ipsum mauris. Maecenas congue ligula ac quam viverra nec consectetur ante hendrerit. Donec et mollis dolor. Praesent et diam eget libero egestas mattis sit amet vitae augue. Nam tincidunt congue enim, ut porta lorem lacinia consectetur. "
> cat(paste(strwrap(x=c(x, "\n"), width=80), collapse="\n"))
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Donec a diam lectus.
Sed sit amet ipsum mauris. Maecenas congue ligula ac quam viverra nec
consectetur ante hendrerit. Donec et mollis dolor. Praesent et diam eget libero
egestas mattis sit amet vitae augue. Nam tincidunt congue enim, ut porta lorem
lacinia consectetur.
> cat(paste(strwrap(x=c(x, "\n"), width=60), collapse="\n"))
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
Donec a diam lectus. Sed sit amet ipsum mauris. Maecenas
congue ligula ac quam viverra nec consectetur ante
hendrerit. Donec et mollis dolor. Praesent et diam eget
libero egestas mattis sit amet vitae augue. Nam tincidunt
congue enim, ut porta lorem lacinia consectetur.
```
### Using the stringr tidyverse library
Another option, using stringr::str_wrap
```rsplus
> x <- "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Donec a diam lectus. Sed sit amet ipsum mauris. Maecenas congue ligula ac quam viverra nec consectetur ante hendrerit. Donec et mollis dolor. Praesent et diam eget libero egestas mattis sit amet vitae augue. Nam tincidunt congue enim, ut porta lorem lacinia consectetur. "
> cat(stringr::str_wrap(x, 60))
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
Donec a diam lectus. Sed sit amet ipsum mauris. Maecenas
congue ligula ac quam viverra nec consectetur ante
hendrerit. Donec et mollis dolor. Praesent et diam eget
libero egestas mattis sit amet vitae augue. Nam tincidunt
congue enim, ut porta lorem lacinia consectetur.
```
## Racket
Using a library function:
```Racket
#lang at-exp racket
(require scribble/text/wrap)
(define text
@(λ xs (regexp-replace* #rx" *\n *" (string-append* xs) " ")){
In olden times when wishing still helped one, there lived a king whose
daughters were all beautiful, but the youngest was so beautiful that the
sun itself, which has seen so much, was astonished whenever it shone in her
face. Close by the king's castle lay a great dark forest, and under an old
lime-tree in the forest was a well, and when the day was very warm, the
king's child went out into the forest and sat down by the side of the cool
fountain, and when she was bored she took a golden ball, and threw it up on
high and caught it, and this ball was her favorite plaything.})
(for-each displayln (wrap-line text 60))
```
Explicit (and simple) implementation:
```racket
#lang racket
(define (wrap words width)
(define (maybe-cons xs xss)
(if (empty? xs) xss (cons xs xss)))
(match/values
(for/fold ([lines '()] [line '()] [left width]) ([w words])
(define n (string-length w))
(cond
[(> n width) ; word longer than line => line on its own
(values (cons (list w) (maybe-cons line lines)) '() width)]
[(> n left) ; not enough space left => new line
(values (cons line lines) (list w) (- width n 1))]
[else
(values lines (cons w line) (- left n 1))]))
[(lines line _)
(apply string-append
(for/list ([line (reverse (cons line lines))])
(string-join line #:after-last "\n")))]))
;;; Usage:
(wrap (string-split text) 70)
```
## REXX
### version 0
This version was the original (of version 1) and has no error checking and only does left-margin justification.
```rexx
/*REXX program reads a file and displays it to the screen (with word wrap). */
parse arg iFID width . /*obtain optional arguments from the CL*/
if iFID=='' | iFID=="," then iFID='LAWS.TXT' /*Not specified? Then use the default.*/
if width=='' | width=="," then width=linesize() /* " " " " " " */
@= /*number of words in the file (so far).*/
do while lines(iFID)\==0 /*read from the file until End-Of-File.*/
@=@ linein(iFID) /*get a record (line of text). */
end /*while*/
$=word(@,1) /*initialize $ with the first word. */
do k=2 for words(@)-1; x=word(@,k) /*parse until text (@) exhausted. */
_=$ x /*append it to the $ list and test. */
if length(_)>=width then do; say $ /*this word a bridge too far? > w. */
_=x /*assign this word to the next line. */
end
$=_ /*new words (on a line) are OK so far.*/
end /*m*/
if $\=='' then say $ /*handle any residual words (overflow).*/
/*stick a fork in it, we're all done. */
```
'''output''' is the same as version 1 using the '''L'''eft option (the default).
### version 1
The input for this program is in a file (named '''LAWS.TXT''').
The default width of the output is the current terminal width (normally, this would be the window's width).
If the terminal width (or window's width) is indeterminable, then 80 is used.
The width can be expressed as a percentage (i.e.: 50%) which signifies to use ½ of the terminal's width).
No hyphenation (or de-hyphenation) is attempted.
Words longer than the width of the output are acceptable and are shown (with no truncation), a simple change could be made to issue a notification.
Some rudimentary error checking is performed.
Types of word wrapping (justification) are (only the first character is significant):
```txt
Center: ◄centered►
Right: ────────►right margin
Left: left margin◄─────────
Both: ◄───both margins────►
```
('''L'''eft is the default.)
This version was modified (for speed at the expense of simplicity) to accommodate faster processing of large files.
Instead of appending lines of a file to a character string, the words are picked off and stored in a stemmed array.
This decreases the amount of work that REXX has to do to retrieve (get) the next word in the (possibly) ginormous string.
```rexx
/*REXX program reads a file and displays it to the screen (with word wrap). */
parse arg iFID width kind _ . /*obtain optional arguments from the CL*/
if iFID=='' | iFID=="," then iFID = 'LAWS.TXT' /*Not specified? Then use the default.*/
if width=='' |width=="," then width= linesize() /* " " " " " " */
if right(width, 1) =='%' then width= linesize() * translate(width, , "%") % 100
if kind=='' | kind=="," then kind= 'Left' /*Default? Then use the default: LEFT */
just= left(kind, 1); upper just /*use 1st char of JUSTIFY, uppercased.*/
if pos(just, 'BCLR')==0 then call err "KIND (3rd arg) is illegal:" kind
if _\=='' then call err "too many arguments specified." _
if \datatype(width,'W') then call err "WIDTH (2nd arg) isn't an integer:" width
n=0 /*the number of words in the file. */
do j=0 while lines(iFID)\==0 /*read from the file until End-Of-File.*/
_=linein(iFID) /*get a record (line of text). */
do until _==''; n= n + 1 /*extract some words (or maybe not). */
parse var _ @.n _ /*obtain and assign next word in text. */
end /*until*/ /*parse 'til the line of text is null. */
end /*j*/
if j==0 then call err 'file' iFID "not found."
if n==0 then call err 'file' iFID "is empty (or has no words)"
[email protected] /*initialize $ string with first word*/
do m=2 for n-1; x= @.m /*parse until text (@) is exhausted. */
_= $ x /*append it to the $ string and test.*/
if length(_)>= width then call tell /*this word a bridge too far? > w */
$= _ /*the new words are OK (so far). */
end /*m*/
call tell /*handle any residual words (if any). */
exit /*stick a fork in it, we're all done. */
/*──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────*/
err: say; say '***error***'; say; say arg(1); say; say; exit 13
/*──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────*/
tell: if $=='' then return /* [↓] the first word may be too long.*/
w=max(width, length($) ) /*don't truncate long words (> w). */
select
when just=='L' then $= strip($) /*left ◄──────── */
when just=='R' then $= right($, w) /*──────► right */
when just=='B' then $=justify($, w) /*◄────both────► */
when just=='C' then $= center($, w) /* ◄centered► */
end /*select*/
say $ /*display the line of words to terminal*/
_= x /*handle any word overflow. */
return /*go back and keep truckin'. */
```
This REXX program makes use of '''LINESIZE''' REXX program (or BIF) which is used to determine the screen width (or linesize) of the terminal (console).
The '''LINESIZE.REX''' REXX program is included here ──► [[LINESIZE.REX]].

∙ Some complex systems actually work.
∙ If a system is working, leave it alone.

∙ A system continues to do its thing, regardless of need.
∙ Systems develop goals of their own the instant they come into being.
∙ Intrasystem goals come first.

────────── Computer programming laws ────────── The Primal Scenario -or- Basic
Datum of Experience: ∙ Systems in general work poorly or not at all. ∙ Nothing
complicated works. ∙ Complicated systems seldom exceed 5% efficiency. ∙ There
is always a fly in the ointment. The Fundamental Theorem: ∙ New systems
generate new problems. Occam's Razor: ∙ Systems should not be unnecessarily
multiplied. The Law of Conservation of Energy: ∙ The total amount of energy in
the universe is constant. ∙ Systems operate by redistributing energy into
different forms and into accumulations of different sizes. Laws of Growth: ∙
Systems tend to grow, and as they grow, they encroach. The Big-Bang Theorem of
Systems-Cosmology: ∙ Systems tend to expand to fill the known universe.
Parkinson's Extended Law: ∙ The system itself tends to expand at 5-6% per
annum. The Generalized Uncertainty Principle: ∙ Systems display antics. ∙
Complicated systems produce unexpected outcomes. ∙ The total behavior of large
systems cannot be predicted. The Non-Additivity Theorem of Systems-Behavior
-or- Climax Design Theorem: ∙ A large system, produced by expanding the
dimensions of a smaller system, does not behave like the smaller system.
LeChateliers's Principle: ∙ Complex systems tend to oppose their own proper
function. ∙ Systems get in the way. ∙ The system always kicks back. ∙ Positive
feedback is dangerous. Functionary's Falsity: ∙ People in systems do not do
what the system says they are doing. ∙ The function performed by a system is
not operationally identical to the function of the same name performed by a
man. ∙ A function performed by a larger system is not operationally identical
to the function of the same name performed by a smaller system. The Fundamental
Law of Administrative Workings: ∙ Things are what they are reported to be. ∙
The real world is whatever is reported to the system. ∙ If it isn't official;
it didn't happen. ∙ If it's made in Detroit, it must be an automobile. ∙ A
system is no better than its sensory organs. ∙ To those within a system, the
outside reality tends to pale and disappear. ∙ Systems attract systems-people.
∙ For every human system, there is a type of person adapted to thrive on it or
in it. ∙ The bigger the system, the narrower and more specialized the interface
with individuals. Administrator's Anxiety: ∙ Pushing on the systems doesn't
help. It just makes things worse. ∙ A complex system cannot be "made" to work.
It either works or it doesn't. ∙ A simple system, designed from scratch,
sometimes works. ∙ A simple system may or may not work. ∙ Some complex systems
actually work. ∙ If a system is working, leave it alone. ∙ A complex system
that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that works.
∙ A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up
to make it work. You have to start over, beginning with a working simple
system. ∙ Programs never run the first time. ∙ Complex programs never run. ∙
Anything worth doing once will probably have to be done twice. The Functional
indeterminacy Theorem: ∙ In complex systems, malfunction and even total
nonfunction may not be detectable for long periods, if ever. The Kantian
Hypothesis -or- Know-Nothing Theorem: ∙ Large complex systems are beyond human
capacity to evaluate. The Newtonian Lay of Systems-Inertia: ∙ A system that
performs a certain way will continue to operate in that way regardless of the
need of of changed conditions. ∙ A system continues to do its thing, regardless
of need. ∙ Systems develop goals of their own the instant they come into being.
∙ Intrasystem goals come first. Failure-Mode Theorems: ∙ Complex systems
usually operate in failure mode. ∙ A complex system can fail in a infinite
number of ways. ∙ If anything can go wrong, it will. ∙ The mode of failure of a
complex system cannot ordinarily be predicted from its structure. ∙ The crucial
variables are discovered by accident. ∙ The larger the system, the greater the
probability of unexpected failure. ∙ "Success" or "function" in any system may
be failure in the larger or smaller systems to which the system is connected. ∙
In setting up a new system, tread softly. You may be disturbing another system
that is actually working. The Fail-Safe Theorem: ∙ When a fail-safe system
fails, it fails by failing to fail safe. ∙ Complex systems tend to produce
complex responses (not solutions) to problems. ∙ Great advances are not
produced by systems designed to produce great advances. ∙ Loose systems last
longer and work better. ∙ Efficient systems are dangerous to themselves and to
others. The Vector Theory of Systems: ∙ Systems run better when designed to run
downhill. ∙ Systems aligned with human motivational vectors will sometimes
work. Systems opposing such vectors work poorly or not at all. Advanced Systems
Theories: ∙ Everything is a system. ∙ Everything is a part of a larger system.
∙ The universe is infinitely systematized, both upward [larger systems] and
downward [smaller systems]. ∙ All systems are infinitely complex. (The illusion
of simplicity comes from focusing attention on one or a few variables.) ∙
Parameters are variables traveling under an assumed name.

Vijftig jaar geleden publiceerde Edsger Dijkstra zijn kortstepadalgoritme.
Daarom een kleine ode aan de in 2002 overleden Dijkstra, iemand waar we als
Nederlanders best wat trotser op mogen zijn. Dijkstra was een van de eerste
programmeurs van Nederland. Toen hij in 1957 trouwde, werd het beroep
computerprogrammeur door de burgerlijke stand nog niet erkend en uiteindelijk
gaf hij maar `theoretische natuurkundige’ op. Zijn beroemdste resultaat is het
kortstepadalgoritme, dat de kortste verbinding vindt tussen twee knopen in een
graaf (een verzameling punten waarvan sommigen verbonden zijn). Denk
bijvoorbeeld aan het vinden van de kortste route tussen twee steden. Het slimme
van Dijkstra’s algoritme is dat het niet alle mogelijke routes met elkaar
vergelijkt, maar dat het stap voor stap de kortst mogelijke afstanden tot elk
punt opbouwt. In de eerste stap kijk je naar alle punten die vanaf het beginpunt
te bereiken zijn en markeer je al die punten met de afstand tot het beginpunt.
Daarna kijk je steeds vanaf het punt dat op dat moment de kortste afstand heeft
tot het beginpunt naar alle punten die je vanaf daar kunt bereiken. Als je een
buurpunt via een nieuwe verbinding op een snellere manier kunt bereiken, schrijf
je de nieuwe, kortere afstand tot het beginpunt bij zo’n punt. Zo ga je steeds
een stukje verder tot je alle punten hebt gehad en je de kortste route tot het
eindpunt hebt gevonden.

In olden times when wishing still helped one, there lived a
king whose daughters were all beautiful, but the youngest
was so beautiful that the sun itself, which has seen so
much, was astonished whenever it shone-in-her-face.
Close-by-the-king's castle lay a great dark forest, and
under an old lime-tree in the forest was a well, and when
the day was very warm, the king's child went out into the
forest and sat down by the side of the cool-fountain, and
when she was bored she took a golden ball, and threw it up
on high and caught it, and this ball was her favorite
plaything.

## zkl
This is a greedy algorithm for mono spaced text with ragged right. In addition, it can look at the first two lines to do "smart indenting". It handles multiple paragraphs and a variety of input sources.
```zkl
fcn formatText(text, // text can be String,Data,File, -->Data
length=72, calcIndents=True){
sink:=Data();
getIndents:='wrap(w){ // look at first two lines to indent paragraph
reg lines=L(), len=0, prefix="", one=True;
do(2){
if(w._next()){
lines.append(line:=w.value);
word:=line.split(Void,1)[0,1]; // get first word, if line !blank
if(word){
p:=line[0,line.find(word[0]]);
if(one){ sink.write(p); len=p.len(); one=False; }
else prefix=p;
}
}
}
w.push(lines.xplode()); // put first two lines back to be formated
return(len,prefix);
};
reg len=0, prefix="", w=text.walker(1); // lines
if(calcIndents) len,prefix=getIndents(w);
foreach line in (w){
if(not line.strip()){ // blank line
sink.write("\n",line); // blank line redux
if(calcIndents) len,prefix=getIndents(w);
else len=0; // restart formating
}else
len=line.split().reduce('wrap(len,word){

if(len==0) { sink.write(word); return(n); }
