Procedural generation has been brought into the spotlight recently (by Spore, MMOs, etc), and it seems like an interesting/powerful programming technique.

My questions are these:

  • Do you know of any mid-sized projects that utilize procedural generation techniques?
  • What language/class of languages is best for procedural generation?
  • Can you use procedural generation for "serious" code? (i.e., not a game)
