hey /g/entoomen

how can i count the number of tweet that include a certain keyword during a specific period of time.

example: i wanna know how many tweets had the word "faggot" in them from 12/1/2015 to 12/30/2015
>>
using twitter api
this requires some programming experience or knowledge of some of the tools

any other option ?

Not really, unless you either

a) pay someone else to do it for you, or

b) take a manual tally of each tweet that contains your specified keyword, which is more or less impossible/ beyond tedious

I'd suggest looking into some general programming tutorials - there's really no excuse nowadays for not knowing some form or function of code, you're doing yourself more harm than good otherwise.

It doesn't matter at all.

I saw a conference a few months back and the guy did this in like 30 seconds using python, some big-data stuff for python (the talk was about big data) and the twitter API. Seriously it was like 10 lines of code.
