Simple Tokenizers
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These tokenizers divide strings into substrings using the string
|
|
|
|
``split()`` method.
|
|
|
|
When tokenizing using a particular delimiter string, use
|
|
|
|
the string ``split()`` method directly, as this is more efficient.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The simple tokenizers are *not* available as separate functions;
|
|
|
|
instead, you should just use the string ``split()`` method directly:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
>>> s = "Good muffins cost $3.88\nin New York. Please buy me\ntwo of them.\n\nThanks."
|
|
|
|
>>> s.split()
|
|
|
|
['Good', 'muffins', 'cost', '$3.88', 'in', 'New', 'York.',
|
|
|
|
'Please', 'buy', 'me', 'two', 'of', 'them.', 'Thanks.']
|
|
|
|
>>> s.split(' ')
|
|
|
|
['Good', 'muffins', 'cost', '$3.88\nin', 'New', 'York.', '',
|
|
|
|
'Please', 'buy', 'me\ntwo', 'of', 'them.\n\nThanks.']
|
|
|
|
>>> s.split('\n')
|
|
|
|
['Good muffins cost $3.88', 'in New York. Please buy me',
|
|
|
|
'two of them.', '', 'Thanks.']
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The simple tokenizers are mainly useful because they follow the
|
|
|
|
standard ``TokenizerI`` interface, and so can be used with any code
|
|
|
|
that expects a tokenizer. For example, these tokenizers can be used
|
|
|
|
to specify the tokenization conventions when building a `CorpusReader`.
