haikunatormatlab

Generate memorable names for instances, files, experiments etc. in MATLAB. This is modeled after the python port haikunatorpy.

Installation

Simply add this repository to your MATLAB path using the IDE Home>Set Path. There is no need to include subfolders. Alternatively use the addpath function.

Currently the minimum version is set to 2017a to take advantage of tidy argument validation. It may work starting at 2016, but has not been tested so a warning will appear.
