is there any lorem ipsum generator in c#? [closed]

Answer 1

Found this Lorem Ipsum generator: http://www.gutgames.com/post/Lorem-Ipsum-Generator-in-C.aspx

Answer 2

There's one in NuGet called NetFx Ipsum Generator.

You can install it with

Install-Package netfx-IpsumGenerator

It's pretty minimal though, I'm currently looking for a better one, or a way to contribute.

Why not to use Lorem Ipsum Online generator?

I wrote this code that extracts the lorem ispum string from HTML page:

string LoremIpsum()
{
   string HTML = null;
   WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create("http://lipsum.com/feed/html"); 
   request.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
   HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
   Stream dataStream = response.GetResponseStream();
   StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(dataStream);
   HTML = reader.ReadToEnd(); //se citeste codul HTMl

   //searching for Lorem Ipsum
   HTML = HTML.Remove(0, HTML.IndexOf("<div id=\"lipsum\">")); 
   HTML = HTML.Remove(HTML.IndexOf("</div>"));
   HTML = HTML
        .Replace("<div id=\"lipsum\">", "")
        .Replace("</div>", "")
        .Replace("<p>", "")
        .Replace("</p>", "");

   reader.Close();
   dataStream.Close();
   response.Close();
   return HTML; 
}

Minor modification to Greg + Tomino's excellent method above to capitalize the first word of each sentence. I also removed the trailing newline and removed some "+ 1"s that gave one too many. Very handy for testing word wrap capabilities of user interfaces! Thanks to Tomino & Greg.

private static string LoremIpsum(int minWords, int maxWords, int minSentences, int maxSentences, int numLines)
{
    var words = new[]{"lorem", "ipsum", "dolor", "sit", "amet", "consectetuer", "adipiscing", "elit", "sed", "diam", "nonummy", "nibh", "euismod", "tincidunt", "ut", "laoreet", "dolore", "magna", "aliquam", "erat"};

    var rand = new Random();
    int numSentences = rand.Next(maxSentences - minSentences)
        + minSentences;
    int numWords = rand.Next(maxWords - minWords) + minWords;

    var sb = new StringBuilder();
    for (int p = 0; p < numLines; p++)
    {
        for (int s = 0; s < numSentences; s++)
        {
            for( int w = 0; w < numWords; w++ )
            {
                if( w > 0 ) { sb.Append( " " ); }
                string word = words[ rand.Next( words.Length ) ];
                if( w == 0 ) { word = word.Substring( 0, 1 ).Trim().ToUpper() + word.Substring( 1 ); }
                sb.Append( word );
            }
            sb.Append(". ");
        }
        if ( p < numLines-1 ) sb.AppendLine();
    }
    return sb.ToString();
}

There's actually a package out on Nuget that does this exact thing for you.

http://www.nuget.org/packages/NLipsum/

For example, you can generate a paragraph of text by just doing this:

var someComments = new NLipsum.Core.Paragraph();

Hello
you can use WordGenerator or LoremIpsumGenerator from MMLib.RapidPrototyping nuget package.

using MMLib.RapidPrototyping.Generators;
public void Example()
{
   WordGenerator generator = new WordGenerator();
   var randomWord = generator.Next();

   Console.WriteLine(randomWord);

   LoremIpsumGenerator loremIpsumGenerator = new LoremIpsumGenerator();
   var text = loremIpsumGenerator.Next(3,3);

   Console.WriteLine(text);
}
