Inspiration
Every student has faced the issue of an essay without any spice. It is also very difficult to find anything to help better your word choice. Our essay checker fixes this problem.
What it does
This essay checker will search a given piece of text for redundancies. Any word used more than 4 times will be detected. The program will then find synonyms for these overused words.
How we built it
We built this project in Python using for and while loops as well as natural language processing.
Challenges we ran into
One of the biggest issues was that the runtime was excessively long, as using the natural language toolkit takes very long.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We're proud of the fact that we were able to
What we learned
We learned how to use different methods within the nltk module as well as how to use various data structures.
What's next for Essay checker
We want to expand it to more parts of the essay and also show how similar two words are in definition. This can be done easily by using the nltk library.
