Runt last-line prevention: runt length threshold · case 02
Last lines of exactly the minimum length are still rebalanced.
Case contract
Input [words, width, minimum last-line length]. Greedy fill (unit spaces; overwide word alone). Then while there are at least two lines and the last line string is shorter than the minimum, move the last word of the previous line down if that line keeps at least one word and the new last line fits. Return lines.
Why this case matters
Line breaking decides where paragraphs wrap on screen and in print; a wrong decision point shifts every following line.
One recorded failure
Sample boundary fixtureThis sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
| Boundary fixture | Actual | Expected | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| regression: runt length threshold | ["a at is", "on baseline"] | ["a at is on", "baseline"] | Failed |
