Basic example

var typer = new Typerloop({
    text: ["Hello", "This is how the Typerloop works."],  // a set of text items to be typed sequentially;
    min:   24,         // minimum number of milliseconds before the next character is typed;
    max:   160,        // maximum number of milliseconds before the next character is typed;
    word_min:   0,     // minimum number of milliseconds before the next word is typed, in addition to character delay;
    word_max:   240,   // maximum number of milliseconds before the next word is typed, in addition to character delay;
    delay: 1000,       // milliseconds to show the completed text item before switching to the next;
    on_update: (new_text, new_character, previous_character)  => {
        // text updated to string new_text;
        // the most recently added character is new_character,
        //   and the one before is previous_character;
        my_do_something_method(new_text);
    },
    on_next: (full_text) => {
        // the current text item switched and Typerloop will now type full_text;
        my_text_did_switch_method(full_text);
    },
    on_loop: () => {
        // finished typing all strings, looping back to the first string;
