Hey There, My first post, so go easy on me!
I do social media strategy and monitoring freelance work, so I've recently dipped my toes into programming with Python and the Twitter API to build some simple applications for clients to perform some basic custom functions & queries without having to dish out tons of money for some of the expensive social media monitoring tools out there. Gotta say, I'm loving this so far and I'm able to build little one-off applications for clients. Anyways, I have a client that is interesting in figuring out the following: Of twitter users who mention "Term A", what are the additional terms that they frequently mention. Sort of like eCommerce systems that show "users who bought A, also frequently purchased B, C and D". the output I'm hoping for is something along these lines: Of users who mentioned apples, 50% mentioned oranges, 25% mentioned lemons, etc... I know I'll eventually have to write some code to filter out certain words that are irrelevant, but just trying to figure out the framework of getting the right data from the API right now. This has reached the limit of my understanding of the twitter API thus far, and just want to see if anyone knew if this is possible. No need to explain fully, but anything to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated-- I'm sure I can eventually figure it out (with enough time), but wanted to make sure I wasn't wasting my time trying to do something that is beyond the capabilities of the API. Much appreciated!
