eliza

This is an implementation in C++ of ELIZA that attempts to be as close to the original as possible. It was made to closely follow Joseph Weizenbaum’s description of his program given in his January 1966 Communications of the ACM paper, and later changed to follow the ELIZA source code found on 2021 and the SLIP programming function HASH(D,N) found on 2022. It is controlled by a script identical to the one given in the appendix of the 1966 paper.
