The personality data structure further includes weights, each of the weights associated with each of the analysis models. The weights include integer values.
In another aspect a poet's assistant method including loading a word processing program, receiving a word in the word processing program provided by a user, displaying poet windows in response to receiving the word and processing the word in each of the windows.
