Additional setup
Additional setup is required to include libraries required for text processing. Take a look at the following points:
- First is Bazel. On Ubuntu, you will need to follow the official tutorial on this link to install Bazel. https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/install-ubuntu.html. On macOS, you can use HomeBrew to
install bazelas follows:
$ brew install bazel- Then, we will install
swig, which will allow us to wrap C/C++ functions to allow calls in Python. On Ubuntu, you can install it using:
$ sudo apt-get install swigOn Mac OS, we will also install it using brew, as follows:
$ brew install swig- Next, we'll install the protocol buffer support, which will allow us to store and retrieve serialized data in a more efficient manner than with XML. We specifically need version

$ pip install -U protobuf==3.3.0- Our text classification will be represented as trees, so we'll need a library to display trees on the command line. We will install it as follows...
