I am using Python to assign labels to results returned from TextBlob. My very basic code looks like this:
from textblob import TextBlob
def sentLabel(blob):
label = blob.sentiment.polarity
if(label == 0.0):
print('Neutral')
elif(label > 0.0):
print('Positive')
else:
print('Negative')
Feedback1 = "The food in the canteen was awesome"
Feedback2 = "The food in the canteen was awful"
Feedback3 = "The canteen has food"
b1 = TextBlob(Feedback1)
b2 = TextBlob(Feedback2)
b3 = TextBlob(Feedback3)
print(b1.sentiment_assessments)
print(sentLabel(b1))
print(b2.sentiment_assessments)
print(sentLabel(b2))
print(b3.sentiment_assessments)
print(sentLabel(b3))
This prints out the sentiment correctly but it also prints out "None" as shown below:
Sentiment(polarity=1.0, subjectivity=1.0, assessments=[(['awesome'], 1.0, 1.0, None)])
Positive
None
...
Is there any way to suppress "None" from being printed?
Thanks for any help or pointers.
Your function sentLabel
return None
. Hence when you use print(sentLabel(b1))
, it prints None
.
This should work for you.
from textblob import TextBlob
def sentLabel(blob):
label = blob.sentiment.polarity
if(label == 0.0):
print('Neutral')
elif(label > 0.0):
print('Positive')
else:
print('Negative')
Feedback1 = "The food in the canteen was awesome"
Feedback2 = "The food in the canteen was awful"
Feedback3 = "The canteen has food"
b1 = TextBlob(Feedback1)
b2 = TextBlob(Feedback2)
b3 = TextBlob(Feedback3)
print(b1.sentiment_assessments)
sentLabel(b1)
print(b2.sentiment_assessments)
sentLabel(b2)
print(b3.sentiment_assessments)
sentLabel(b3)
