PROGRAM EXPLANATION

Algorithm and explanation

  1. Import the required standard-library tools and prepare the sample data for create a bag of words.
  2. Apply Bag of words and Counter to compute the required result.
  3. Display the result for create a bag of words and compare it with the documented sample output.

This example of create a bag of words computes the result directly from the prepared sample data. It demonstrates Bag of words and Counter and prints a deterministic result that can be checked against the sample output.

DEBUGGING CHECKLIST

Common mistakes

Check this

For create a bag of words, keep the data shape and value types consistent with Bag of words.

Check this

Apply Bag of words in the same order shown by the algorithm; changing the order can change the result.

Check this

Verify the final Bag of words and Counter result against the sample before trying new data.

Try it yourself

Practice: Run the program with the sample input, predict its output, and then test one boundary case of your own.
