Coding 2026-08-10
I got a little bit more tested and implemented today, although I did cheat a bit by just pasting in my prototype code for converting a character stream to a word stream; there was one branch I hadn't written tests to cover, but that was easy to compensate for. The next thing I have to work on is writing tests for dividing a stream of words into chunks; some problems there because I'm not totally confident in my ability to write a processing step for parameterized input; my strategy thus far has been to write code to process the test string all at once into some kind of list of strings, and compare that against the iterator output from the implementation. But I'm getting to a point where I'm not sure how to produce the expected value, without basically implementing the same algorithm I'm meaning to test. I will have to think about this; and I'll have to think about it later, because it's already super late.
Good night.
