 BUILDING AN CHAT-BOT
USING PYTHON PROGRAMMING

Building a chatbot with Python for data science typically involves using natural language processing
(NLP) libraries and, optionally, machine learning frameworks. A popular choice for creating a simple
rule-based chatbot is NLTK (Natural Language Toolkit). Below is a basic example using NLTK for a
rule-based chatbot in Python:

PROGRAM –

import random
patterns_responses = {
"hello": ["Hi there!", "Hello sony", "Hey sony"],
"how are you": ["I'm just a chatbot, but I'm doing fine!", "I don't have feelings, but I'm here to
help!"],
"what's your name": ["I'm ChatBot, nice to meet you!", "You can call me ChatBot."],
"bye": ["Goodbye!", "Have a great day!", "See you later!"]
}
def chatbot_response(user_input):
user_input = user_input.lower()
for pattern, responses in patterns_responses.items():
if pattern in user_input:
return random.choice(responses)
return "I'm not sure how to respond to that."
print("ChatBot: Hi! I'm here to chat. Type 'bye' to exit.")
while True:
user_input = input("You: ")
if user_input.lower() == "bye":
print("ChatBot: Goodbye!")
break
response = chatbot_response(user_input)
print("ChatBot:", response)
RESULT-

In this example, the chatbot uses a set of predefined responses and rules to generate responses based
on user input. The NLTK Chat class is used to implement the rule-based chatbot.

For more advanced chatbots with machine learning capabilities, you might want to explore
frameworks like Rasa, which allows you to build conversational AI with a combination of rule-based
