So I'm interested in seeing if there is any way to measure how many tokens apart are particular types I'm interested in. For example, this is part of the text I am working with and the marked types are the ones I am interested in measuring in two ways:
a)how many tokens in average are there between all of them? (Manually, I can calculate it 0+18+12=30/3= 10)
b)how many tokens are exactly between Abuser and the first Social-Media, for instance. (Manually I can count them and see that there are 18)
... die ihre Abuser out-callen und teils sogar exposen mit Fotos aber nicht nur was die TäterInnen angeht auch was Hilfsangebote angeht scheint Social-Media immer wichtiger zu werden Es gibt zum Beispiel ein Handzeichen dass auf Social-Media viel geteilt wurde...
As you can probably tell, I'm not that experienced (yet) with Python/NLTK but I'm trying my best, so any answers/help is greately appreciated. I have all of the types I want to measure already as a list, but I just can't get to answering how to 'measure' things how I want to.
Thank you all for your time in answering this! :)
