How To Use Nltk3 For Python33?

I successfully installed NLTK 2.0.4, but when I tried to download the NLTK packages, i.e. nltk.download('stopwords') it doesn't work, so I am trying to install an updated version

Solution 1:

First install python3-pip then use it to install pyyaml

$ sudo apt-get install python3-pip
$ sudo pip3 install pyyaml
$ wget http://www.nltk.org/nltk3-alpha/nltk-3.0a3.tar.gz
$ tar -xzvf nltk-3.0a3.tar.gz
$ cd nltk-3.0a3/
$ sudo python3 setup.py install
$ python3
>>> import nltk
>>> from nltk.corpus import brown
>>> print(brown.sents()[0])
