How to install Gensim

This recipe provides you with detailed steps to install the Gensim library in python

Recipe Objective: How to install Gensim?

Gensim ("Generate Similar") is a python-based open-source framework for unsupervised topic modeling and natural language processing. The simplest way to install gensim is by using the terminal.

1) Using terminal-
In your terminal, type the following command

   pip install gensim
   pip install --upgrade gensim # to upgrade version

2) Using Conda Environment-
In your conda terminal, type the following command.

   conda install -c conda-forge gensim

3) Using Source Package-
If you have downloaded the source package, you need to unzip it and run the following commands.

   python setup.py test
   python setup.py install

You could quickly install it in your notebook using the following command (not recommended)

!pip install gensim

#importing the library
import gensim
