Resource u'tokenizers/punkt/english.pickle' not found

Question

My Code:

import nltk.data
tokenizer = nltk.data.load(\'nltk:tokenizers/punkt/english.pickle\')

ERROR Message:

[ec2-user@ip-         


        

Answer 1

If you're looking to only download the punkt model:

import nltk
nltk.download('punkt')

If you're unsure which data/model you need, you can install the popular datasets, models and taggers from NLTK:

import nltk
nltk.download('popular')

With the above command, there is no need to use the GUI to download the datasets.
