Text::Lorem - Generate random Latin looking text

    use Text::Lorem;
   
    my $text = Text::Lorem->new();
  
    # Generate a string of text with 5 words
    $words = $text->words(5);
  
    # Generate a string of text with 2 sentences
    $sentences = $text->sentences(2);
  
    # Generate 3 paragraphs
    $paragraphs = $text->paragraphs(3);

Often when developing a website or other application it's important to have placeholders for content. This module generates prescribed amounts of fake Latin text.

"new()"
The default constructor, "new()" takes no arguments and returns a Text::Lorem object.

"words( INTEGER )"
Returns INTEGER fake Latin words.
"sentences( INTEGER )"
Returns INTEGER sentences in fake Latin.
"paragraphs( INTEGER )"
Returns INTEGER paragraphs of fake Latin text.

Thanks to the guys who pushed me off the cliff called comfort and into the scary world of Perl: James Duncan, Leon Brocard.
