ASA Conference and ITIC Symposium: Workshop Streams
Computer Programming in Python and the Natural Language Toolkit (NLTK) Workshop
Natural Language Toolkit (NLTK) is a library of Python that can analyse very large amounts of textual data using computational methods. This workshop will introduce the basics of computational textual analysis through an exploration of the Malcolm Fraser Radio Talks Archive, and is suitable for people with no prior coding experience or those unfamiliar with NLTK. Please bring a laptop and software to run Python. More information will be provided before the session.
