Most common words

8 九月, 2015 - 10:43

To find the most common words, we can apply the DSU pattern; most_common takes a histogram and returns a list of word-frequency tuples, sorted in reverse order by frequency:

def most_common(hist):
t = []
for key, value in hist.items():
t.append((value, key))
 
t.sort(reverse=True)
return t

Here is a loop that prints the ten most common words:

t = most_common(hist)print 'The most common words are:'for freq, word in t[0:10]:print word, '\t', freq

And here are the results from Emma:
