What is a document in Gensim

In this recipe, we will learn what is meant by a document in text processing. We will also see an example using the gensim library in python.

Recipe Objective: What are documents in Gensim?

In Gensim, a document refers to some text sequence like String in Python. A document could be a single sentence, a short paragraph, an article, or an entire book.

This text sequence is known as str or string in python. Strings in python are immutable, i.e., their value cannot be reassigned. You can write string using-

   Single quotes- 'Hello World'
   Double quotes- "Hello World"
   Triple quotes- '''Hello World''' or """Hello World"""

An example of a document in Gensim is as follows-

document = "This is a simple sentence."
