Python - 在文本文件中查找单词列表的词频

Question

I am trying to speed up my project to count word frequencies. I have 360+ text files, and I need to get the total number of words and the number of times each word from another list of words appears. I know how to do this with a single text file.

>>> import nltk
>>> import os
>>> os.chdir("C:\Users\Cameron\Desktop\PDF-to-txt")
>>> filename="1976.03.txt"
>>> textfile=open(filename,"r")
>>> inputString=textfile.read()
>>> word_list=re.split('\s+',file(filename).read().lower())
>>> print 'Words in text:', len(word_list)
#spits out number of words in the textfile
>>> word_list.count('inflation')
#spits out number of times 'inflation' occurs in the textfile
>>>word_list.count('jobs')
>>>word_list.count('output')

Its too tedious to get the frequencies of 'inflation', 'jobs', 'output' individual. Can I put these words into a list and find the frequency of all the words in the list at the same time? Basically this with Python.

Example: Instead of this:

>>> word_list.count('inflation')
3
>>> word_list.count('jobs')
5
>>> word_list.count('output')
1

I want to do this (I know this isn't real code, this is what I'm asking for help on):

>>> list1='inflation', 'jobs', 'output'
>>>word_list.count(list1)
'inflation', 'jobs', 'output'
3, 5, 1

My list of words is going to have 10-20 terms, so I need to be able to just point Python toward a list of words to get the counts of. It would also be nice if the output was able to be copy+paste into an excel spreadsheet with the words as columns and frequencies as rows

Example:

inflation, jobs, output
3, 5, 1

And finally, can anyone help automate this for all of the textfiles? I figure I just point Python toward the folder and it can do the above word counting from the new list for each of the 360+ text files. Seems easy enough, but I'm a bit stuck. Any help?

An output like this would be fantastic: Filename1 inflation, jobs, output 3, 5, 1

Filename2
inflation, jobs, output
7, 2, 4

Filename3
inflation, jobs, output
9, 3, 5

Thanks!

Answer 1

collections.Counter() has this covered if I understand your problem.

The example from the docs would seem to match your problem.

# Tally occurrences of words in a list
cnt = Counter()
for word in ['red', 'blue', 'red', 'green', 'blue', 'blue']:
    cnt[word] += 1
print cnt


# Find the ten most common words in Hamlet
import re
words = re.findall('\w+', open('hamlet.txt').read().lower())
Counter(words).most_common(10)

From the example above you should be able to do:

import re
import collections
words = re.findall('\w+', open('1976.03.txt').read().lower())
print collections.Counter(words)

EDIT naive approach to show one way.

wanted = "fish chips steak"
cnt = Counter()
words = re.findall('\w+', open('1976.03.txt').read().lower())
for word in words:
    if word in wanted:
        cnt[word] += 1
print cnt

Answer 2

One possible implementation (using Counter)...

Instead of printing the output, I think it would be simpler to write to a csv file and import that into Excel. Look at http://docs.python.org/2/library/csv.html and replace print_summary .

import os
from collections import Counter
import glob

def word_frequency(fileobj, words):
    """Build a Counter of specified words in fileobj"""
    # initialise the counter to 0 for each word
    ct = Counter(dict((w, 0) for w in words))
    file_words = (word for line in fileobj for word in line.split())
    filtered_words = (word for word in file_words if word in words)
    return Counter(filtered_words)


def count_words_in_dir(dirpath, words, action=None):
    """For each .txt file in a dir, count the specified words"""
    for filepath in glob.iglob(os.path.join(dirpath, '*.txt')):
        with open(filepath) as f:
            ct = word_frequency(f, words)
            if action:
                action(filepath, ct)


def print_summary(filepath, ct):
    words = sorted(ct.keys())
    counts = [str(ct[k]) for k in words]
    print('{0}\n{1}\n{2}\n\n'.format(
        filepath,
        ', '.join(words),
        ', '.join(counts)))


words = set(['inflation', 'jobs', 'output'])
count_words_in_dir('./', words, action=print_summary)

Answer 3

A simple functional code to count word frequencies in a text file:

{
import string

def process_file(filename):
hist = dict()
f = open(filename,'rb')
for line in f:
    process_line(line,hist)
return hist

def process_line(line,hist):

line = line.replace('-','.')

for word in line.split():
    word = word.strip(string.punctuation + string.whitespace)
    word.lower()

    hist[word] = hist.get(word,0)+1

hist = process_file(filename)
print hist
}
