Character Based Language Model Have you ever wondered how Gmail automatic reply works? Or how your WhatsApp suggests the next word when texting? Or even how we can generate musical notes?

Markov chain is based on a principle of“memorylessness”. In other words the next state of the process only depends on the previous state and not the sequence of states.
