Hello Pro-grammers and other Vermin!

This is like my space to share stuff im a bit proud of so you can like laugh at it when you are bored :D
im doing like Dev-Dairys and shit, if i feel like it!

Cat translator

My goal for this project was to create a small translator to message people in a secret cat language! Initially, I wanted to map every single word to a specific cat sound. However, after discussing it with someone, they suggested mapping syllables to cat sounds instead. This is much smarter since there are far fewer syllables than words, and it scales better with word length.

So, I set out to build a C# project for it. After a quick 5-minute coding adventure, I realized that detecting syllables with 100% accuracy is actually pretty much impossible—which was a bit of a bummer. Nevertheless, the C# code was finished quickly. You can find the source code here: Bad code! todo make gitlab (Don’t look too closely, it’s a bit messy! :D).

To host a version of this on Neocities, I needed a comprehensive dictionary of almost all syllables. I generated one by feeding my code the entire Bee Movie script and the complete works of Shakespeare. It’s still not perfect, but definitely good enough for what it is. Enjoy! :D
