Word wrap
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Even today, with proportional fonts and complex layouts, there are still cases where you need to wrap text at a specified column.
- Basic task
The basic task is to wrap a paragraph of text in a simple way in your language.
If there is a way to do this that is built-in, trivial, or provided in a standard library, show that. Otherwise implement the minimum length greedy algorithm from Wikipedia.
Show your routine working on a sample of text at two different wrap columns.
- Extra credit
Wrap text using a more sophisticated algorithm such as the Knuth and Plass TeX algorithm. If your language provides this, you get easy extra credit, but you must reference documentation indicating that the algorithm is something better than a simple minimum length algorithm.
If you have both basic and extra credit solutions, show an example where the two algorithms give different results.

Ada
The specification of a class Word_Wrap.Basic in a package Word_Wrap: <lang Ada>generic
with procedure Put_Line(Line: String);
package Word_Wrap is
type Basic(Length_Of_Output_Line: Positive) is tagged private;
procedure Push_Word(State: in out Basic; Word: String); procedure New_Paragraph(State: in out Basic); procedure Finish(State: in out Basic);
private

end Word_Wrap;</lang>
The implementation of that package:
<lang Ada>package body Word_Wrap is
procedure Push_Word(State: in out Basic; Word: String) is begin if Word'Length + State.Size >= State.Length_Of_Output_Line then Put_Line(State.Line(1 .. State.Size)); State.Line(1 ..

Word'Length) := Word; State.Size := Word'Length; end if; State.Top_Of_Paragraph := False; end Push_Word;
procedure New_Paragraph(State: in out Basic) is begin Finish(State); if not State.Top_Of_Paragraph then Put_Line(""); State.Top_Of_Paragraph := True; end if; end New_Paragraph;
procedure Finish(State: in out Basic) is begin if State.Size > 0 then Put_Line(State.Line(1 .. State.Size)); State.Size := 0; end if; end Finish;

function Skip_Leading_Spaces(S: String) return String is begin if S="" then return ""; elsif S(S'First) = ' ' then return S(S'First+1 .. S'Last); else return S; end if; end Skip_Leading_Spaces;

/* Each but the last of wrapped lines comes with some penalty as the square
of the diff between line length and desired line length. If the line is longer than desired length, the penalty is multiplied by 100. This pretty much prohibits the wrapping routine from going over right margin. If is ok to exceed the margin just a little, something like 20 or 40 will do.
Knuth uses a per-paragraph penalty for line-breaking in TeX, which is-- unlike what I have here--probably bug-free.

Commodore BASIC
Nothing terribly fancy. Except for screen control codes, this should actually work on a wide variety of 8-bit BASIC outside of the Commodore realm. Note that strings are limited to 255 total characters, and INPUT
will retrieve only a limited number of characters (less than 80 on the Commodore 64) even for a string, not to mention that special characters such as comma, semicolon, etc. have special meaning and are not captured.

Fortran
Early Fortran provided no facility for manipulating text until the A format code was introduced by Fortran 4 that allowed characters to be read into variables, which could then be manipulated and written out. F77 introduced the CHARACTER data type which however did not have a notion of a variable-length string, other than via the programmer keeping track with auxiliary variables. F90 enabled the introduction via user-written functions and data types of a string-like facility, whereby a CHARACTER type variable would be resized on assignment. F95 formalised this facility as a part of the language.
There are no facilities for "flowing" text on output according to a specified width, though various direct methods are possible. For instance, given a variable containing thousands of characters, <lang Fortran> CHARACTER*12345 TEXT
... DO I = 0,120 WRITE (6,*) TEXT(I*80 + 1:(I + 1)*80) END DO</lang>
would write forth the text with eighty characters per line, paying no attention to the content when it splits a line.
The following is in the style of F77 except for the use of the MODULE facility to simplify the usage of auxiliary variables. Otherwise, if there is not to be a simple mainline only, scratchpads would have to be shared via COMMON or the proliferation of a tedious number of parameters. The specification calls for the flowing of a single paragraph of text, but this routine is based on one written in the 1980s for the printing of programme source files (in Fortran or pl/i) whereby large blocks of comments would be recognised and re-flowed so as to fill more of the width of a 132-column lineprinter, thus allowing a broader canvas for documentation and yet, whenever there were changes, the source file did not have to be reformatted each time.
The basic ploy is that FLOW receives a wad of text and sends it forth without exceeding a specified WIDTH, holding any tail end until the next blob is supplied to be tacked on the end, with a separating space supplied. However, if a blob starts with a space this is deemed to be the start of a new paragraph, so any waiting text is rolled first even if a short line. To flush out any waiting text at the end, invoke FLOW with a blank (or null) parameter.
The source-listing programmes simply appended the incoming text to the end of the scratchpad, knowing that source files do not present long records, but here an incoming text may be much larger than any reasonable scratchpad so there is assessment of the available space first. Choosing a cut position is problematic. The scheme here is to split at spaces only; a more accomplished method might classify letters, digits and decimal points as being sequences that ought not be split. And should it be O'-hara or O-'hara? Still more difficult is proper hyphenation: des-ert (noun) or de-sert (verb) - the grammar of human languages being non-computable.
Should there be no suitable split in the fragment being appended, then, arbitrarily, if that fragment is short then it is not appended: the line is rolled with trailing spaces. But if it has more than six characters, it will be placed and a crude chop made. <lang Fortran>

For text flowing purposes the actual source lister expected to find block comments with a space after the C (so that column three was the first character of the text to be flowed), so the above source would be listed as-is - except for overprinting key words and underlining, easy with a lineprinter but much more difficult on modern printers that expect a markup language instead.

Solution 2: Using Inject - Functional Style
A solution using the groovy list.inject method which corresponds to foldLeft in other languages.
<lang groovy> String wordWrap(str, width=80) {
str.tokenize(' ').inject([[]]) { rows, word -> if (rows.last().join(' ').length() + word.length() <= width) rows.last() << word else rows << [word] rows }.collect { it.join(' ') }.join('\n')
} </lang>
this solution shows off the more functional aspects of groovy.
Solution 3: Ninja Style - @TailRecursive and performant
For very large strings (say Shakespeare's complete works which comes in around 7MB in text), the two above solutions are not very performant as they copy large portions of the input string multiple times.
Throwing away all readability, using a number of groovy tricks (abusing default parameter values etc) and just going for performance and terseness of code we get the following:
<lang groovy> import groovy.transform.TailRecursive import static java.lang.Math.min
@TailRecursive String wordWrap(str, w, i=w, b=<<, len=str.length()-1, x=0) {
b.setCharAt(x = (b << str[b.length()..i]).lastIndexOf(' '), '\n' as char) b.length()+w >= len ? b << str[i..-1] : wordWrap(str, w, min(x+w+1, len), b, len, 0)
} </lang>
Should be noted that this is not idiomatic groovy or a recommended way of programming, but it is interesting as an exercise.
Assuming width of 80, we essentially jump 80 characters forward in the text, look backwards for the first space we find, replace that space with a newline, jump forwards 80 characters from the newly inserted newline, look backwards for a space etc.
This means we never look at every character in the input text and we just replace spaces with newlines as we go.
Note that this solution uses recursion and the @TailRecursive annotation which expands the recursive calls into a non-recursive loop at runtime, thus avoiding stack overflow exceptions for large data sets. Note also that the following expressions are equivalent:
<lang groovy> def a = new StringBuilder() def a = << </lang>
Should also be noted that this solution ignores and breaks for the case where words are longer than a line. I have a version which takes this case into account but I figured this was unreadable enough.
Testing can be done as above with the exception that the second wrap width parameter is required.
As an anecdotal baseline for a performance comparison, running 7MB of English text (Shakespeare) through the first algorithm 10 times takes around 3100ms on my current workstation (with a number of warm-up iterations excluded) and running the last algorithm through the same exercise takes around 230ms.

Lingo
Lingo/Director has 2 visual components for displaying text, text and field members. Both can soft-wrap text directly. In cases where you need a hard-wrapped representation of a text, this could e.g. be implemented like this: (Note: this solution is meant for proportional fonts and based on actual text rendering. For the more trivial case of non-proportial font word wrapping, just pass a non-proportinal font like e.g. Courier in the 'style' argument) <lang lingo>-- in some movie script
-- Wraps specified text into lines of specified width (in px), returns lines as list of strings -- @param {string} str -- @param {integer} pixelWidth -- @param {propList} [style] -- @return {list}

M2000 Interpreter
M2000 Environment (where actual a M2000 script executed) provide the means to print proportional text, in console, in layer in console form, in user windows layers, and in printer paper. To render proportional text we can use:
Print statement with styles from 4 to 10 (so 0 to 3 are non proportional, by default we use 0). Styles applied with $() print's internal function. So a Print $(4), set from current position the proportional style. This has word wrap, but stop at wrapping. Print statement not used for documents (or strings with paragraphs). We can print text with diacritics.
Report statement is the default renderer for text. Not only render text, but can be used to calculate the number of lines before actual render text. Report also prints in characters row, and can be used with Double statement to change temporary to Double height font. Also use Italic and Bold state. Also can print text with diacritics as Print statement can. Lead space from paragraph stay there, and spaces can be get bigger or smaller from original size, but not to small. Because we can give the width of the output (in character units, or in twips units), we can find easy the bounding box. Report statement when rendering to anything except console, stop rendering, after scrolling the 3/4 of layer height (the lower part which can scroll, maybe all the height, depends on setting split screen function), waiting for user to press space or a mouse button.
Legend Statement use Font and font size (Mode in M2000) for each call, and print text in graphic position, using alignment but not word warp, and we can use rotation. Functions size.x() and size.y() can return then dimension of the bounding box,
We can use controls on forms to render text, and EditBox has word wrap, and a state when no edit allowed, we can view/scroll text only.
This example use a text in a$, where first remove line breaks. Then set font to Tahoma, and console size to 80 characters by 50 lines, and display the current font size (automatic environment insert line space between text rows). Also display state for Bold and Italic. Then we get the text from 9th row, as proportional text, italic, centered with a width for lines as 60 characters width. Then ask for a keypress.
At the second phase, in a loop, render text twice, the first as is, the second changing color in each line. To perform that, it render once without displaying, get from ReportLines the number of lines, and then execute a for loop and do a partial display, but each time rendering starts from first line, and display from the line we choose, for lines we choose (first choose lines and next using Line choose the first line). Until now we didn't get somewhere in memory the actual lines, only in layer, displayed.
At the third phase, we can get in a document variable all lines (where actual made each line break). We can find the length in twips for each line, but this is with spaces with standard width. Report use spaces smaller or bigger than normal space, and do a distribution of pixels that can't be fit in all spaces chunks, mostly at the right chunks. So even using a non proportional font, we get from Report at rendering proportional spacings.
The inner editor of M2000 environment also works with Word Warp and can change it with F1 any time. Also EditBox can change with F1 word wrap, in user forms (windows).
All of these statements not handle tab character (9) as tab. Editor change tab with spaces, and Print/report/Legend prints tab as a square character (as for 9.4 version of M2000 Environment and Interpreter).

REXX
version 0
This version was the original (of version 1) and has no error checking and only does left-margin justification. <lang rexx>/*REXX program reads a file and displays it to the screen (with word wrap). */ parse arg iFID width . /*obtain optional arguments from the CL*/ if iFID== | iFID=="," then iFID='LAWS.TXT' /*Not specified?

do while lines(iFID)\==0 /*read from the file until End-Of-File.*/ @=@ linein(iFID) /*get a record (line of text). */ end /*while*/

do k=2 for words(@)-1; x=word(@,k) /*parse until text (@) exhausted. */ _=$ x /*append it to the $ list and test. */ if length(_)>=width then do; say $ /*this word a bridge too far? > w. */ _=x /*assign this word to the next line. */ end $=_ /*new words (on a line) are OK so far.*/ end /*m*/
if $\== then say $ /*handle any residual words (overflow).*/
/*stick a fork in it, we're all done. */</lang>
output is the same as version 1 using the Left option (the default).
version 1
The input for this program is in a file (named LAWS.TXT).
The default width of the output is the current terminal width (normally, this would be the window's width).
If the terminal width (or window's width) is indeterminable, then 80 is used.
The width can be expressed as a percentage (i.e.: 50%) which signifies to use ½ of the terminal's width).
No hyphenation (or de-hyphenation) is attempted.
Words longer than the width of the output are acceptable and are shown (with no truncation), a simple change could be made to issue a notification.
Some rudimentary error checking is performed.
Types of word wrapping (justification) are (only the first character is significant):
Center: ◄centered► Right: ────────►right margin Left: left margin◄───────── Both: ◄───both margins────►
(Left is the default.)
This version was modified (for speed at the expense of simplicity) to accommodate faster processing of large files.
Instead of appending lines of a file to a character string, the words are picked off and stored in a stemmed array.
This decreases the amount of work that REXX has to do to retrieve (get) the next word in the (possibly) ginormous string.

Wrapped at: 80................................................................................ Vijftig jaar geleden publiceerde Edsger Dijkstra zijn kortstepadalgoritme. Daarom een kleine ode aan de in 2002 overleden Dijkstra, iemand waar we als Nederlanders best wat trotser op mogen zijn. Dijkstra was een van de eerste programmeurs van Nederland. Toen hij in 1957 trouwde, werd het beroep computerprogrammeur door de burgerlijke stand nog niet erkend en uiteindelijk gaf hij maar `theoretische natuurkundige’ op. Zijn beroemdste resultaat is het kortstepadalgoritme, dat de kortste verbinding vindt tussen twee knopen in een graaf (een verzameling punten waarvan sommigen verbonden zijn). Denk bijvoorbeeld aan het vinden van de kortste route tussen twee steden. Het slimme van Dijkstra’s algoritme is dat het niet alle mogelijke routes met elkaar vergelijkt, maar dat het stap voor stap de kortst mogelijke afstanden tot elk punt opbouwt. In de eerste stap kijk je naar alle punten die vanaf het beginpunt te bereiken zijn en markeer je al die punten met de afstand tot het beginpunt. Daarna kijk je steeds vanaf het punt dat op dat moment de kortste afstand heeft tot het beginpunt naar alle punten die je vanaf daar kunt bereiken. Als je een buurpunt via een nieuwe verbinding op een snellere manier kunt bereiken, schrijf je de nieuwe, kortere afstand tot het beginpunt bij zo’n punt. Zo ga je steeds een stukje verder tot je alle punten hebt gehad en je de kortste route tot het eindpunt hebt gevonden.
