Natural Language Processing Project

(View Complete Item Description)

In this archive there are two activities/assignments suitable for use in a CS0 or Intro course which uses Python. In the first activity, students are asked to "fill in the code" in a series of short programs that compute a similarity metric (cosine similarity) for text documents. This involves string tokenization, and frequency counting using Python string methods and datatypes. https://cocalc.com/share/bde99afd-76c8-493d-9608-db9019bcd346/171/Proj1?viewer=share/ In the second activity (taken directly from Think Python 2e) students use a pronunciation dictionary to solve a riddle involving homophones. https://cocalc.com/share/bde99afd-76c8-493d-9608-db9019bcd346/171/Dicts2?viewer=share/ This OER material was produced as a result of the CS04ALL CUNY OER project
