Usage

Text Helpers

// this will generate a string with three words:
string words = LoremNET.Lorem.Words(3);

// this will generate a string with two to five words:
string words = LoremNET.Lorem.Words(2, 5);

// this will generate a string with five to ten words with "uppercaseFirstLetter" set to "false" and "includePunctuation" set to "true":
string words = LoremNET.Lorem.Words(5, 10, false, true);

// a sentence is the same as "Words" except that it will include punctuation by default and will include a "." at the end of a string:
string sentence = LoremNET.Lorem.Sentence(5, 10);

// a paragraph is a string composed of multiple sentences; this paragraph will have five to six words per sentence, and four to ten sentences:
string paragraph = LoremNET.Lorem.Paragraph(5, 6, 4, 10);

// paragraphs is an array of paragraphs; this method will have eight to nine words per sentence, four to five sentences per paragraph, and one to three paragraphs:
IEnumerable<string> paragraphs = LoremNET.Lorem.Paragraphs(8, 9, 4, 5, 1, 3);

Breaking Change : As of v5.0, support for anything other than .Net 8 and .Net 9 has been removed.
