Natural Language Processing

NLP is the branch of AI that gives computers the ability to understand text and spoken words in much the same way human beings can.

3. How NLP Works

The core process involves cleaning, tokenization, and understanding intent through various mathematical models.

Text data must be converted into numerical representations (vectors) before a machine can process it.

This simple example demonstrates basic tokenization—splitting a sentence into individual words.

text = "NLP helps machines understand us."
words = text.split()

print(words) # Output: ['NLP', 'helps', ...]
