=item Algorithm::MarkovChain::->new() or $obj->new()

Creates a new instance of the Algorithm::MarkovChain class.

Takes one optional parameter: C<recover_symbols>

C<recover_symbols> has meaning if your symbols differ from their true
values when stringifyed.  With this option enabled steps are taken to
ensure that the original values for symbols are returned by the
I<spew> method.


=item $obj->seed()

Seeds the markov chains from an example symbol stream.

Takes two parameters, one required C<symbols>, one optional C<longest>

C<symbols> presents the symbols to seed from
