I have a string which basically contains a paragraph. There might be line breaks.
Now I would want to get only the 1st sentence in the string.
I thought I would try
indexOf(". ")
that is a dot with a space.
The problem is that this won’t work though on a line such as firstName. LastName.
I’m using .Net. Is there a good method available to achieve this?
Im also tagging Java to see if I can narrow down my search.
What you need is a Natural Language Parsing (NLP) toolkit. It’s very hard to write one yourself, as it requires a lot of research and data collection, but luckily it has already been done for you.
