Hello, there

You are here because you also want to learn natural language processing as quickly as possible, like me.

Let’s start

The first thing we need is to install some dependency

  1. Python >3.7

2. Download an IDE or install Jupyter notebook

To install Jupyter notebook, just open your cmd(terminal) and type pip install jupyter-notebook after that type jupyter notebook to run it then you can see that your notebook is open at http://127.0.0.1:8888/ token .

3. Install packages

pip install nltk

NLTK: It is a python library that can we used to perform all the NLP tasks(stemming, lemmatization, etc..)

In this blog, we are going to learn about

  1. Tokenization
  2. Stopwords
  3. Stemming
  4. Lemmatizer
  5. WordNet
  6. Part of speech tagging
