Hi Mike. I didn't find the target documents for app 8 of the Jump-start course. I couldn't match your results because I don't have the .txt documents you searched.

Could you make those available?

Thanks Steve Erickson ps. I love your podcast & have bought the 2016 bundle. This course is bringing back old memories and new ambitions.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for taking the courses and listening to the podcast!

I don't have the text files available. I didn't put them in github because it was 2GB of text. All I did was download maybe 10 long books in text form from https://www.gutenberg.org/ Then I duplicated them (copy paste, repeat) until I had a ton of text to mess with.

Best, Michael

A simple python project resolved this for me:

https://github.com/puntonim/gutenberg-bulk-downloader

I downloaded a few thousand txt files, unzipped them and had 1.2 GB worth of text pretty quickly.
