Re: Found Senryu (#224)

My solution is enclosed.

It uses the Lingua::EN package from http://www.pressure.to/ruby/ to
count syllables. According to it there are 4729 Senryu’s in the US
Constitution (with amendments). :slight_smile:

As an aside, do people actually do these quizzes any more? There seems
to have been no discussion about this one at all…

I would have loved to have done this quiz but:

  1. I had no idea where to start with a ‘syllable-counting’ algorithm
  2. I had so much to do that when I thought about looking for some,
    you’d already posted a solution.

helps everyone on Ruby T. follow the discussion. Please reply to
