Hi~ I am having a problem while I am trying to tokenize facebook comments which are in CSV format. I have my CSV data ready, and I completed reading the file.
I am using Anaconda3; Python 3.5. (My CSV data has about 20k in rows and 1 in cols)
The codes are,
import csv
from nltk import sent_tokenize, word_tokenize as sent_tokenize, word_tokenize
with open('facebook_comments_samsung.csv', 'r') as f:
reader = csv.reader(f)
your_list = list(reader) #list(reader)
print (your_list)
What comes, as a result, is something like this:
[['comment_message'], ['b"Yet again been told a pack of lies by Samsung Customer services who have lost my daughters phone and couldn\'t care less. ANYONE WHO PURCHASES ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY NEEDS THEIR HEAD TESTED"'], ["b'You cannot really blame an entire brand worldwide for a problem caused by a branch. It is a problem yes, but address your local problem branch'"], ["b'Haha!! Sorry if they lost your daughters phone but I will always buy Samsung products no matter what.'"], ["b'Salim Gaji BEST REPLIE EVER \\xf0\\x9f\\x98\\x8e'"], ["b'<3 Bewafa zarge <3 \\r\\n\\n \\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x93\\r\\n\\xf0\\x9f\\x8e\\xad\\xf0\\x9f\\x91\\x89 AQIB-BOT.ML \\xf0\\x9f\\x91\\x88\\xf0\\x9f\\x8e\\xadMANUAL\\xe2\\x99\\xaaKing.Bot\\xe2\\x84\\xa2 \\r\\n\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x94\\xe2\\x80\\x93\\xe2\\x80\\x94'"], ["b'\\xf0\\x9f\\x8c\\x90 LATIF.ML \\xf0\\x9f\\x8c\\x90'"], ['b"I\'m just waiting here patiently for you guys to say that you\'ll be releasing the s8 and s8+ a week early, for those who pre-ordered.

- Sorry for your inconvenience in reading the result. My bad.
To continue, I added,
tokens = [word_tokenize(i) for i in your_list]
for i in tokens:
print (i)
print (tokens)
This is the part where I get the following error:
C:\Program Files\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\nltk\tokenize\punkt.py in _slices_from_text(self, text) in line 1278 TypeError: expected string or bytes-like object
What I want to do next is,
import nltk
en = nltk.Text(tokens)
print(len(en.tokens))
print(len(set(en.tokens)))
en.vocab()
en.plot(50)
en.count('galaxy s8')
And finally, I want to draw a wordcloud based on the data.
Being aware of the fact that every seconds of your time is precious, I am terribly sorry to ask for your help. I have been working this for a couple of days, and cannot find the right solution for my problem. Thank you for reading.
