Ch 2, section 7: `result` not in code #6

Closed thorbjornwolf closed 5 years ago

It's me again! Let me know if this gets annoying, or if you prefer feedback in a different channel.

The first multiple-choice option in chapter 2, section 7, part 1 refers to a result object, which is not in the code. Looks like a leftover from a refactor :-)

The text is this: "The tokens in the result should be converted back to Token objects. This will let you reuse them in spaCy."

Thanks so much for all your feedback, this is super useful! I think GitHub issues are perfect for this, and I definitely prefer having one issue per topic/bug/question.

Ahh, I think the version of the course materials I used here wasn't the 100% latest version and this was a problem I introduced when simplifying the exercise. Originally, it was a bit more complex. but users on DataCamp found it too difficult and confusing, since the format is very different from the usual style of exercises on the platform.

I think I'm actually going to change the code back to be slightly more complex. It's not like you're going to lose XP or other points here if you ask for a hint or request the solution. And if someone doesn't like it, they can just skip it and move on 🙂
