Power BI: Can't run python scripts

Hi there,

 

I'm using Power BI Desktop and trying to make a sentimental analysis with the following python code:

 

 

 

 

import pandas as pd
from nltk.sentiment.vader import SentimentIntensityAnalyzer
import re
from googletrans import Translator


translatedList = []
for index, row in dataset.iterrows():
    translator = Translator()
    newrow = copy.deepcopy(row)
    try:
        translated = translator.translate(row['zin'], dest='en')
        newrow['translated'] = translated.text
    except Exception as e:
        print(e)
        continue

    translatedList.append(newrow)

dataset_new = pd.DataFrame(translatedList)

SentimentAnalysis = SentimentIntensityAnalyzer()

dataset['sentiment score'] = dataset['translated'].apply(lambda x: SentimentAnalysis.polarity_scores(x)['compound']

 

 

 

 When I run this in PowerQuery->Python Script, I get this error:

DataSource.Error: ADO.NET: Python script error.
<pi> File "C:\Users\Michael\PythonScriptWrapper_8beb0de1-0ae6-441e-9b5e-920645c3bddd\PythonScriptWrapper.PY", line 44

Can someone help me figuring out what the problem is?

HI @Anonymous ,

When I test your python script  by python  3.9.Then :

There seems to be a problem with the script itself.

SyntaxError: unexpected EOF while parsing

 

Wish it is helpful for you!
