Text Cleaning Issues












-1














I'm learning text cleaning using python online.
I have get rid of some stop words and lower the letter.



but when i execute this code, it doesn't show anything.



I don't know why.



# we add some words to the stop word list
texts, article = ,
for w in doc:
# if it's not a stop word or punctuation mark, add it to our article!
if w.text != 'n' and not w.is_stop and not w.is_punct and not w.like_num and w.text != 'I':
# we add the lematized version of the word
article.append(w.lemma_)
# if it's a new line, it means we're onto our next document
if w.text == 'n':
texts.append(article)
article =


when i try to output texts, it's just blank.

  • How do you open the file and read from it ? Can you show that part? Also, It would be good idea to put a print(w) right at the beginning of the for loop to see if w has any value

I believe the 'texts' list and 'article' list refer to same content and hence, clearing one list's content also clears the other list.



Here is a link to a similar question: Python: Append a list to another list and Clear the first list



Please see if the above are useful.
