S-Expression Tokenizer
|
|
|
|
``SExprTokenizer`` is used to find parenthesized expressions in a
|
|
string. In particular, it divides a string into a sequence of
|
|
substrings that are either parenthesized expressions (including any
|
|
nested parenthesized expressions), or other whitespace-separated
|
|
tokens.
|
|
|
|
>>> from nltk.tokenize import SExprTokenizer
|
|
>>> SExprTokenizer().tokenize('(a b (c d)) e f (g)')
|
|
['(a b (c d))', 'e', 'f', '(g)']
|
|
|
|
By default, `SExprTokenizer` will raise a ``ValueError`` exception if
|
|
used to tokenize an expression with non-matching parentheses:
|
|
|
|
>>> SExprTokenizer().tokenize('c) d) e (f (g')
|
|
Traceback (most recent call last):
|
|
...
|
|
ValueError: Un-matched close paren at char 1
|
|
|
|
The ``strict`` argument can be set to False to allow for
|
|
non-matching parentheses. Any unmatched close parentheses will be
|
|
listed as their own s-expression; and the last partial sexpr with
|
|
unmatched open parentheses will be listed as its own sexpr:
|
|
|
|
>>> SExprTokenizer(strict=False).tokenize('c) d) e (f (g')
|
|
['c', ')', 'd', ')', 'e', '(f (g']
|
|
|
|
The characters used for open and close parentheses may be customized
|
|
using the ``parens`` argument to the `SExprTokenizer` constructor:
|
|
|
|
>>> SExprTokenizer(parens='{}').tokenize('{a b {c d}} e f {g}')
|
|
['{a b {c d}}', 'e', 'f', '{g}']
|
|
|
|
The s-expression tokenizer is also available as a function:
|
|
|
|
>>> from nltk.tokenize import sexpr_tokenize
|
|
>>> sexpr_tokenize('(a b (c d)) e f (g)')
|
|
['(a b (c d))', 'e', 'f', '(g)']
|
|
|
|

"""
|
|
A tokenizer that divides strings into s-expressions.
|
|
An s-expresion can be either:
|
|
|
|
- a parenthesized expression, including any nested parenthesized
|
|
expressions, or
|
|
- a sequence of non-whitespace non-parenthesis characters.
|
|
|
|
For example, the string ``(a (b c)) d e (f)`` consists of four
|
|
s-expressions: ``(a (b c))``, ``d``, ``e``, and ``(f)``.
|
|
|
|
By default, the characters ``(`` and ``)`` are treated as open and
|
|
close parentheses, but alternative strings may be specified.
|
|
|
|
:param parens: A two-element sequence specifying the open and close parentheses
|
|
that should be used to find sexprs. This will typically be either a
|
|
two-character string, or a list of two strings.
|
|
:type parens: str or list
|
|
:param strict: If true, then raise an exception when tokenizing an ill-formed sexpr.

def tokenize(self, text):

"""
|
|
Return a list of s-expressions extracted from *text*.
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
>>> SExprTokenizer().tokenize('(a b (c d)) e f (g)')
|
|
['(a b (c d))', 'e', 'f', '(g)']
|

|
All parentheses are assumed to mark s-expressions.
|
|
(No special processing is done to exclude parentheses that occur
|
|
inside strings, or following backslash characters.)
|
|
|
|
If the given expression contains non-matching parentheses,
|
|
then the behavior of the tokenizer depends on the ``strict``
|
|
parameter to the constructor. If ``strict`` is ``True``, then
|
|
raise a ``ValueError``. If ``strict`` is ``False``, then any

unmatched close parentheses will be listed as their own
