a) ...sequences.
b)
What would be interesting is building blocks of rules.
Finally we could find a physical thing (cardan grille, domino block, alberti wheel etc...) that could show how the words have been composed basicly.
Of course there are exceptions while writing.
c)
The maximum modifications on a word is flexible. The maximum modifications per PAGE. would be interesting to see what the max is.
A program would have to measure the modification "distance" towards all words, if you take the page as entity.
That means you only start to measure on line1, first word. Based on your paper, it is my guess that there is a solid maximum.
However, you should limit the program to length 4,5 and 6 to make things easier.
The outcome could mean several things, depending on the results, just some ideas:
* there is no maximum: a codebook on words was used perhaps
* there is a maximum and a average line: the "words" are basis of a natural language, or the "words" are ciphered
* if there is a big fluctuation (no structure): the text has no meaning, it is just creative writing
* if there is a big fluctuation no structure: the main text is filling with no meaning, only very few letters or some structure has a meaning

Quote:There is no doubt that you can define a set of rules. The only problem is, that such writing rules will only work for 99 % or sometimes 80 % of the words in the VMS.

Quote:..
There is for sure a maximum of modifications for each word. The only problem is that this number is different for each word.
...
But what does this numbers say about the VMS in your eyes?
