NOTE: For this to work correctly, you must copy the numbered list from the article into a text file called "bandnames.txt". Also, at the time of this writing, there is no space between "43." and "Wolf". For Wolf to be used in your results, you must add the space in your text file. function bandnames(varargin) %By Timmortal, Feb 2014, http://nyarlathotim.blogspot.com % %Syntax: bandnames generates 1 band name % bandnames(number of band names to generate) % ex. bandnames(20) produces 20 bandnames % %Generates metal band names from the list of "100" most overused metal band %names.
