# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE: # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. # Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and # the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. # You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also # customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines. |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------| PyStemmer: PyStemmer (Snowball stemming algorithms, for information retrieval) PyStemmer: PyStemmer: PyStemmer provides access to efficient algorithms for calculating a PyStemmer: "stemmed" form of a word. This is a form with most of the common PyStemmer: morphological endings removed; hopefully representing a common PyStemmer: linguistic base form. This is most useful in building search engines PyStemmer: and information retrieval software; for example, a search with PyStemmer: stemming enabled should be able to find a document containing PyStemmer: "cycling" given the query "cycles".
