Hello,

Is anyone getting the output message

  Tag Accuracy: NaN

when running the test harness with the WSJ data for assignment 2 ??

I take NaN to indicate some sort of 'divide by 0' error which in the
POSTaggerTester code may be coming from the evaluateTagger routine having
0 in the numTags variable.

I don't want to assume it is a problem with my platform/configuration, etc
only to find out it's a data file format problem or something!

Please give me a shout if you're getting this or something similar.

Thanks,
Henry-
