A terminal tool races through Wikipedia links by asking Jev to rank each possible next page.
To try this navigation game, pick two Wikipedia articles, like an everyday snack and a distant galaxy. A developer can install the tool and set up an account access code from TypeSafe. The software opens the starting page, reads all the links, and asks the service to score which links lead closer to your goal.
You can watch the program follow the best rated paths until it reaches the destination. It only sends link names to the scoring service, not full page texts. Because it only keeps top choices at each step, keep in mind it might overlook a shorter hidden route or fail to find any path.
