Participants will explore text processing with Python, using William Shakespeare’s “Hamlet” as their subject. They’ll tokenize the text, analyze word frequency, and visualize results to reveal Shakespeare’s favored words and themes. By removing common stopwords, they’ll uncover deeper insights into the playwright’s language choices, culminating in a discussion where they interpret their findings, offering fresh perspectives on Shakespeare’s enduring literary brilliance in the digital era.
