Balanced headline wrapping: interword space in counting · case 02

Balanced widths are too narrow and lines overflow when laid out.

Member previewVariant 2 · 3 implementations · 8 checks per implementation

Case contract

Input [words, width]. Let L be the greedy line count at width (["overflow"] if a word is wider). Find the smallest width w (>= longest word) whose greedy wrap needs no more than L lines, then return the greedy wrap at w.

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
