===============================================

An example grammar:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
>>> from nltk.parse.generate import generate, demo_grammar
|
||
|
|
>>> from nltk import CFG
|
||
|
|
>>> grammar = CFG.fromstring(demo_grammar)
|
||
|
|
>>> print(grammar)
|
||
|
|
Grammar with 13 productions (start state = S)
|
||
|
|
S -> NP VP
|
||
|
|
NP -> Det N
|
||
|
|
PP -> P NP
|
||
|
|
VP -> 'slept'
|
||
|
|
VP -> 'saw' NP
|
||
|
|
VP -> 'walked' PP
|
||
|
|
Det -> 'the'
|
||
|
|
Det -> 'a'
|
||
|
|
N -> 'man'
|
||
|
|
N -> 'park'
|
||
|
|
N -> 'dog'
|
||
|
|
P -> 'in'
|
||
|
|
P -> 'with'
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The first 10 generated sentences:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
>>> for sentence in generate(grammar, n=10):
|
||
|
|
... print(' '.join(sentence))
|
||
|
|

All sentences of max depth 4:
|

|
|
|

|
|
>>> for sentence in generate(grammar, depth=4):
|

The number of sentences of different max depths:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
>>> len(list(generate(grammar, depth=3)))
|
||
|
|
0
|
