Last update on December 21 2024 07:35:41 (UTC/GMT +8 hours)

Python NLTK

NLTK is a leading platform for building Python programs to work with human language data. It provides easy-to-use interfaces to over 50 corpora and lexical resources such as WordNet, along with a suite of text processing libraries for classification, tokenization, stemming, tagging, parsing, and semantic reasoning, wrappers for industrial-strength NLP libraries.

The best way we learn anything is by practice and exercise questions. We have started this section for those (beginner to intermediate) who are familiar with Python, Natural Language Toolkit.

Hope, these exercises help you to improve your Python-NLTK coding skills. Currently, following sections are available, we are working hard to add more exercises .... Happy Coding!
