Question 1

What are stop words?

Accepted Answer

Stop words are common words like "the", "is", "at", "which" that are often filtered out in text analysis because they carry little meaning.

Question 2

Is the analysis case-sensitive?

Accepted Answer

No. Words are normalized to lowercase before counting, so "The" and "the" are counted as the same word.

Question 3

How are words separated?

Accepted Answer

Words are split by whitespace and punctuation. Hyphenated words are treated as single words.

Question 4

Question 5
