To English speakers, very long German words often look silly. This software analyzes some of the works of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. It uses the texts from Project Gutenberg (in German) to find the three longest words in each of several of his works.
Install pickle and requests libraries before using. Run "textmining_requests.py" to get the text files from Project Gutenberg. Then, run "textmining_processing.py" to find the longest German words! They will print in the terminal.
This project was originally written in Week 6 of Software Design, and I reworked it in Week 13. It is now written in an object-oriented style and has some updated text mining processes.
