Let’s Write Positive

Zeinab Rahimi (IR)

| | |

The project is inspired by reading negative comments on social networks. The absence of eye contact in social networks enables people to write negatively about others. By showing the writer the negativity score of a text, the project strives to encourage society to use more positive language. Let’s Write Positive is performed with NLTK sentiment analysis library in Python programming language.
