'''
    Example script to generate text from Nietzsche's writings.

    At least 20 epochs are required before the generated text
    starts sounding coherent.

    It is recommended to run this script on GPU, as recurrent
    networks are quite computationally intensive.

    If you try this script on new data, make sure your corpus 
    has at least ~100k characters. ~1M is better.
