Answer 1

you can try with sklearn

from sklearn.feature_extraction.text import CountVectorizer
    vectorizer = CountVectorizer()

    data=['i am student','the student suffers a lot']
    transformed_data =vectorizer.fit_transform(data)
    vocab= {a: b for a, b in zip(vectorizer.get_feature_names(), np.ravel(transformed_data.sum(axis=0)))}
    print (vocab)
