ZeroDivisionError: float division by zero

This is happening because the text you provided doesnt have a . in it jaja. AS you see it is spliting the text so you can try/catch that and wen it fails catch it with new_frame = fn[0] + _clean It works for me.

@mynameisvinn Would love to help fix this error, but don't have access. 😞

Need to add a try/except statement here to account for any "sentences" that don't contain words and get a length of zero:

I.e. -

    try:
        doc = pos_tagger(sentence)
        verb_count = np.sum([token.pos_ != "VERB" for token in doc])
        return float(verb_count) / len(doc)
    except Exception:
        return 0
