I just posted the word length distribution graph on Github repo. In fact, contrary to the GP’s claim, Quantum Lorem Ipsum contains a larger % of shorter words than vanilla Lorem Ipsum. Also, the distribution isn’t perfectly normal. I used 16 paragraphs from both and wrote a small Julia script to analyze the word length.

I think the assertion that designers want to have a perfect normal distribution of word lengths is arguable. I’d be curious to analyze large datasets of books to see what the actual distribution of word lengths is. Heck, this may be an opportunity to actually fix vanilla Lorem Ipsum and write a script that can generate paragraphs that simulate real world distribution of word lengths! Looks like I have a project ahead of me this upcoming weekend :-).
