Corpora/stopwords not found when import nltk library : <p>I trying to import the nltk package in python 2.7</p>

<pre><code>  import nltk
  stopwords = nltk.corpus.stopwords.words('english')
  print(stopwords[:10])
</code></pre>

<p>Running this gives me the following error:</p>

<pre><code>LookupError: 
**********************************************************************
Resource 'corpora/stopwords' not found.  Please use the NLTK
Downloader to obtain the resource:  &gt;&gt;&gt; nltk.download()
</code></pre>

<p>So therefore I open my python termin and did the following:</p>

<pre><code>import nltk  
nltk.download()
</code></pre>

<p>Which gives me:</p>

<pre><code>showing info https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nltk/nltk_data/gh-pages/index.xml
</code></pre>

<p>However this does not seem to stop. And running it again still gives me the same error. Any thoughts where this goes wrong?</p>
