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

Answer 1

Simple nltk.download() will not solve this issue. I tried the below and it worked for me:

in the nltk folder create a tokenizers folder and copy your punkt folder into tokenizers folder.

This will work.! the folder structure needs to be as shown in the picture
