NLTK is not working on python after installation

Question

I installed NLTK, numpy and matplotlib but whenever I try running any code after importing NLTK an error appears saying that nltk is not a package. It doesn't give me any errors when i import nltk, it all happens after trying to import a text or a corpus. note I also tried on python shell, still not working

>>> import nltk
>>> from nltk.book import text1
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#4>", line 1, in <module>
   from nltk.book import text1
 ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'nltk.book'; 'nltk' is not a package

Answer 1

nltk library does not come by default with the corpses. You have to download these after importing nltk to access nltk.book

Try the following -

import nltk
nltk.download()

This will prompt you to download the relevant package contents, one of which is the nltk.book that you are looking for -
