Show HN: Palindromes.py – spits out single-word and multi-word palindromes

[robtoscani]

palindromes.py is a Python3 program that generates a random or sorted stream of single-word and multi-word palindromes in a given language, including the optional words - whether or not existing - given as argument(s).

Various properties can be set to manipulate and filter the results, such as:

- the language in which the palindromes are to be generated (default is Dutch); - approximate palindrome length; - the minimum word length in the generated palindromes; - the maximum number of words per palindrome; - any characters to be excluded from the palindromes; - the number of palindrome results.

As an example, the following command:

  ./palindromes.py -a -c20 -l4 -L25

may render the following (random) output:
