Name 'sentences' is not defined

I just completed TF1C3W1 assignment. Code works fine, but I’m getting the grading feedback:
“name ‘sentences’ is not defined”
With 0/20 for each function starting with Remove_Stopword()

I fixed the problem. I put the ‘sentences,labels = parse_data_from_file()’ method in its on cell for debugging. This apparently confused your grader algorithm. I’m good to go now.

Hi Nilosree,

I have a same issue. I have sent you my code. Could you have a look? Thanks

Hello @Man_Yau ,

I have checked your code.
Your error is : stopwords not defined.

  1. Under def parse_data_from_file(filename) in Reading the raw data , what you have done is again calling stopwords that belong to def remove_stopwords(sentence).Hence it is not global.It is locally belonging to the function: remove_stopwords()

So, when you are calling it under function : def parse_data_from_file( ), it’s showing stopwords not defined.

  1. Next what you have done is again writing the algorithm for removal of stopwords under def parse_data_from_file(), which shouldn’t be done.You have already created a function above it to remove stopwords.
    (We write functions, so that we don’t need to write algo again and again, and the job can be done just by calling the function and passing the parameter.)

So in that section, under def parse_data_from_file(filename), now you just need to:

  1. call that function : remove_stopwords( ) and pass parameter - sentence in it, instead of writing again the algorithm .
  2. Then just append it into sentences.

Hope this helps!
