I'm working with twitter data and I've trying to count the number of occurrences of each emoji in a string. But, because emojis are showing as emojis in the string I'm struggling to find a way to filter them. In the following image you can see an example of one of the strings I'm working with:
Here I've got two flag emojis, one finger pointing right and one finger pointing left. My desired output would thus be just the four emojis in the string, something like:
df['text_emoji']= df.text.apply(lambda x: [i for i in x if emoji in i]
Do you know if there's some way to do this? Thanks
