A Sentence Splitter is a tool or utility designed to divide a piece of text into individual sentences. It is commonly used in natural language processing (NLP), content analysis, and text editing.

How Sentence Splitter Works

1. Text Input: The user provides a block of text to the tool.
2. Sentence Detection: The tool identifies sentence boundaries based on punctuation marks (e.g., periods, question marks, exclamation points) and contextual rules (e.g., ensuring initials or abbreviations like "Dr." or "etc." are not treated as sentence boundaries).
3. Splitting: The text is divided into separate sentences, each treated as a distinct unit.
4. Output: The tool returns the sentences as a list, array, or structured format for further processing.

How to Use a Sentence Splitter

1. Online Tools:

   • Paste your text into an online Sentence Splitter (e.g., in an NLP tool or app).
   • Click a button to process the text.
   • Copy or download the split sentences for your use.

2. Programming Libraries: If you're working with programming languages like Python, you can use libraries like:

   • NLTK:

     python
     
     import nltk
     from nltk.tokenize import sent_tokenize
     
     text = "This is a sentence. Here is another! Is it working?"
     sentences = sent_tokenize(text)
     print(sentences)
     

   • spaCy:

     python
     
     import spacy
     
     nlp = spacy.load("en_core_web_sm")
     text = "This is a sentence. Here is another! Is it working?"
     doc = nlp(text)
     sentences = [sent.text for sent in doc.sents]
     print(sentences)
     

3. Standalone Software:

   • Some text editors, data preparation tools, or specialized linguistic software include built-in sentence splitting.
