same stats as before, but the top 200 this time, and as a cloud. It’s crying out for some kind of stemming to collapse some terms together I suppose…but it’s also 3:17AM.

I converted the pdf to text file called ‘lc’ with xpdf and then wrote a little python:

#!/usr/bin/env python
 
from urllib import urlopen
from re import sub
 
stop_words = urlopen('http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/idom/ir_resources/linguistic_utils/stop_words').read().split()
text = file('lc').read()
 
counts = {}
for word in text.split():
    word = word.lower()
    word = sub(r'\W', '', word)
    word = sub(r'\d+', '', word)
    if word == ''  or word in stop_words: continue
    counts[word] = counts.get(word,0) + 1
 
words = counts.keys()
words.sort(lambda a,b: cmp(counts[b], counts[a]))
for word in words[0:100]:
    print "%20s %i" % (word, counts[word])

Does me writing code to read the report count as reading the report? …
