Question

hello good night, could you help me to see what is wrong with my code, two errors appear at the bottom in red:

In [47]: file_contents-open("color-blanco.png") def calculate_frequencies (file_contents): # Here is a list of punctuations and uninteresting words you can use to process your text punctuations = ""!()-[]{};:"",-./?@#$%^&*_~ uninteresting_words = ["the","in" ,"a", "to", "if", "is", "it", "of", "and", "or", "an", "as", "i", "me", "my", "we", "o # LEARNER CODE START HERE result={} a-file_contents.split() for word in a: if word in uninteresting_words: pass else: for letter in word: if letter in punctuations: letter.replace(punctuations,"") if word not in result.keys(): result[word]=0 else: result[word]+=1 #wordcloud cloud = wordcloud. WordCloud() cloud.generate_from_frequencies (result) return cloud.to_array()

Answer 1

the variable file_contents does not store the contents of the file it opens. It is instead storing the file pointer.
You are passing the file pointer to the function calculate_frequencies.
Then inside the function, split method is being called on it, which is throwing an error as split method does not exist for file pointer.
You need to pass the string contents instead.
replace the line
file_contents=open("color_blanco.png")
by
f=open("color_blanco.png")
file_contents=f.read()

[ ]: f-open("color_blanco.png") file_contents=f.read
