What language to automate review of documents?

Question

would python be a good choice to programming a code to (i) search & find key words in a document, (ii) return a copy of the entire sentence where the key words were found and (iii) list the missing key words?

Answer 1

Actually, Python will be the best choice for this task, indeed. There are numerous libraries made specially for text mining and processing.

Answer 2

Yup, import re, man :)

For proper construction of regex queries, you may use www.regex101.com, which supports PHP, JavaScript and Python syntax.

Answer 3

@Ace I use that a lot for my text mining tasks - works like a charm :)

Answer 4

Language choice is subjective but you'll definitely need regexp for such a program.
Also you wrote phyton at the tags not python. ☺
