Undocumented

Inherited from ImmutableTree:

Method __delitem__ Undocumented
Method __delslice__ Undocumented
Method __hash__ Undocumented
Method __iadd__ Undocumented
Method __imul__ Undocumented
Method __init__ Undocumented
Method __setitem__ Undocumented
Method __setslice__ Undocumented
Method append Undocumented
Method extend Undocumented
Method pop Undocumented
Method remove Undocumented
Method reverse Undocumented
Method set_label Set the node label. This will only succeed the first time the node label is set, which should occur in ImmutableTree.__init__().
Method sort Undocumented
Instance Variable _hash Undocumented
Instance Variable _label Undocumented

Inherited from ParentedTree (via ImmutableTree):

Method left_sibling The left sibling of this tree, or None if it has none.
Method parent The parent of this tree, or None if it has no parent.
Method parent_index The index of this tree in its parent. I.e., ptree.parent()[ptree.parent_index()] is ptree. Note that ptree.parent_index() is not necessarily equal to ptree.parent.index(ptree), since the index() method returns the first child that is equal to its argument.
Method right_sibling The right sibling of this tree, or None if it has none.
Method root The root of this tree. I.e., the unique ancestor of this tree whose parent is None. If ptree.parent() is None, then ptree is its own root.
Method treeposition The tree position of this tree, relative to the root of the tree. I.e., ptree.root[ptree.treeposition] is ptree.
Method _delparent Update the parent pointer of child to not point to self. This method is only called if the type of child is Tree; i.e., it is not called when removing a leaf from a tree. This method is always called before the child is actually removed from the child list of ...
Method _frozen_class Undocumented
Method _setparent Update the parent pointer of child to point to self. This method is only called if the type of child is Tree; i.e., it is not called when adding a leaf to a tree. This method is always called before the child is actually added to the child list of ...
Instance Variable _parent The parent of this Tree, or None if it has no parent.

Inherited from AbstractParentedTree (via ImmutableTree, ParentedTree):

Method __getslice__ Undocumented
Method insert Undocumented

Inherited from Tree (via ImmutableTree, ParentedTree, AbstractParentedTree):

Class Method convert Convert a tree between different subtypes of Tree. cls determines which class will be used to encode the new tree.
Class Method fromlist Convert nested lists to a NLTK Tree
Class Method fromstring Read a bracketed tree string and return the resulting tree. Trees are represented as nested brackettings, such as:
Method __add__ Undocumented
Method __copy__ Undocumented
Method __deepcopy__ Undocumented
Method __eq__ Undocumented
Method __getitem__ Undocumented
Method __lt__ Undocumented
Method __mul__ Undocumented
Method __radd__ Undocumented
Method __repr__ Undocumented
Method __rmul__ Undocumented
Method __str__ Undocumented
Method chomsky_normal_form This method can modify a tree in three ways:
Method collapse_unary Collapse subtrees with a single child (ie. unary productions) into a new non-terminal (Tree node) joined by 'joinChar'. This is useful when working with algorithms that do not allow unary productions, and completely removing the unary productions would require loss of useful information...
Method copy Undocumented
Method draw Open a new window containing a graphical diagram of this tree.
Method flatten Return a flat version of the tree, with all non-root non-terminals removed.
Method freeze Undocumented
Method height Return the height of the tree.
Method label Return the node label of the tree.
Method leaf_treeposition No summary
Method leaves Return the leaves of the tree.
Method pformat No summary
Method pformat_latex_qtree Returns a representation of the tree compatible with the LaTeX qtree package. This consists of the string \Tree followed by the tree represented in bracketed notation.
Method pos Return a sequence of pos-tagged words extracted from the tree.
Method pprint Print a string representation of this Tree to 'stream'
Method pretty_print Pretty-print this tree as ASCII or Unicode art. For explanation of the arguments, see the documentation for nltk.treeprettyprinter.TreePrettyPrinter.
Method productions Generate the productions that correspond to the non-terminal nodes of the tree. For each subtree of the form (P: C1 C2 ... Cn) this produces a production of the form P -> C1 C2 ... Cn.
Method subtrees Generate all the subtrees of this tree, optionally restricted to trees matching the filter function.
Method treeposition_spanning_leaves No summary
Method treepositions No summary
Method un_chomsky_normal_form This method modifies the tree in three ways:
Class Variable __ge__ Undocumented
Class Variable __gt__ Undocumented
Class Variable __le__ Undocumented
Class Variable __ne__ Undocumented
Class Variable node Undocumented
Class Method _parse_error Display a friendly error message when parsing a tree string fails. :param s: The string we're parsing. :param match: regexp match of the problem token. :param expecting: what we expected to see instead.
Method _get_node Outdated method to access the node value; use the label() method instead.
Method _pformat_flat Undocumented
Method _repr_png_ Draws and outputs in PNG for ipython. PNG is used instead of PDF, since it can be displayed in the qt console and has wider browser support.
Method _set_node Outdated method to set the node value; use the set_label() method instead.
