Description: =================

        =================
        
        The ``adjspecies`` Python module generates random names formed from
        an animal and a descriptor.
        
        Installation
        ============
        
        .. code:: bash

        .. code:: bash
        
            $ python adjspecies.py -h

              --sep SEPARATOR    Separator between the adjective and species words.
                                 (default='')
              --count COUNT      Number of adjective/species combinations to print.
              --prevent-stutter  Prevent the same letter from appearing on an
                                 adjective/species boundary. (default=True)

        In Python code
        --------------
        
        .. code:: python
        
            >>> import adjspecies
            >>> help(adjspecies.random_adjspecies)
            Help on function random_adjspecies in module adjspecies:
            
            random_adjspecies(sep='', maxlen=8, prevent_stutter=True)
                Return a random adjective/species, separated by `sep`. The keyword
                arguments `maxlen` and `prevent_stutter` are the same as for
                `random_adjspecies_pair`, but note that the maximum length argument is
                not affected by the separator.
            
            >>> adjspecies.random_adjspecies('.', 7)
            'wolf.toy'
        
        About
        =====
        
        While writing a deployment system targetting DigitalOcean_ Droplets,
        the author found the largest bottleneck was finding names for the transient
        test servers.
        
        The adjective/species contrivance comes from the furry culture in general
        and more directly from the site `[adjective][species]`_. It provides a
        wide namespace of easy-to-remember randomness.
        
        Everything up until the initial commit was an exercise in yak shaving and
        procrastinating getting out of bed.
