💖 Graph::Writer::HTK — the perl module that writes your graph out as an HTK lattice file 💖

okay bestie, so this page lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of the manual (section 3pm, if you're keeping score), and it's all about Graph::Writer::HTK. sit down, grab a strawberry 🍓, let's get into it.

✨ NAME ✨

Graph::Writer::HTK — write a perl Graph out as an HTK lattice file

like, that's the whole gig. one job. and it ate. 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

use Graph::Writer::HTK;

$writer = Graph::Reader::HTK->new();
$reader->write_graph($graph, 'mylattice.lat');

yes, bestie, we are reading the synopsis exactly as it's written — Graph::Reader::HTK->new() and $reader->write_graph and all. i do not make the rules, i just transcribe them with love 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so basically, this module takes a directed graph and writes it out to a file in the HTK lattice format — that's http://htk.eng.cam.ac.uk if you wanna go look at the source of truth.

one tiny non-negotiable tho: the graph you hand over must be an instance of the Graph class. no random hash pretending to be a graph. it's giving impostor syndrome and we're not here for it. 🚫

🎀 SEE ALSO 🎀

  • Graph — Jarkko Hietaniemi's Graph class and others, used for representing and manipulating directed graphs. Available from CPAN. Also described / used in the chapter on directed graph algorithms in the Algorithms in Perl book from O'Reilly. it's giving classic, it's giving foundational, it's giving read the book bestie. 📚
  • Graph::Writer — the base-class for this module, which defines the public methods, and describes the ideas behind Graph reader and writer modules. the parent that raised us. 🫶
  • Graph::Reader::HTK — a class which will read a perl Graph from an HTK lattice file. the reverse-direction icon. ⭐

and that's the whole page fr fr 💅 this version was documented under perl v5.32.1, dated 2021-09-19, and if you made it all the way down here: ily, go write some lattices, and don't forget the use statement. periodt. 🌈✨
