Module Overview
In this module, we explore the journey from raw text to numerical vectors:
- Basic Tokenization: Splitting text into words and characters.
- Vocabulary Creation: Building a unique lexicon from a corpus.
- Encoding & Decoding: Implementing the mapping between text and integers.
- Vectorization: Moving beyond integers to high-dimensional embeddings.
