Defined in:

Overview

Propagation that results in all the tags of the source being applied to the target. In those cases where overflow occurred, the overflow is tagged the same as the character which preceded it. The target’s preexisting tags are shifted to account for this.

Class Method Details

.propagate(propagation_node, preshift, target) ⇒ Object

String has some silly methods like next. Basically, this flips a character in a predictable manner
