"""Utility class for producing a scansion pattern for a Latin hendecasyllables.

Given a line of hendecasyllables, the scan method performs a series of transformation and checks
are performed and for each one performed successfully, a note is added to the scansion_notes
list so that end users may view the provenance of a scansion.
