Prize: One book of choice by SAMS		 A text can be written in many different idioms. Without a prior knowledge of the idiom on which a text is written, it is hard for a human to guess and eventually use an appropriate idiom translation tool.

This class can be used to guess the idiom of a text. It takes prebuilt data files that are used to give different weights to the presence of certain characters in a text that are more associated to an idiom.

This way the class can give a good idea of the idioms on which a given text is more likely to be written.
