parsing a wordpress xml to pull categories

edited April 2014 in How To...

hello, i am trying to parse an xml file of a wordpress.com account to read and tally the number of times categories are used for all of the posts. i'm also trying to read and tally the number of categories associated with the most commented on posts. i'd like to then assign these categories coordinates and create a 3d surface with them. does anyone have advice on how to do this?

if 3d is too complicated, 2d could work for now. thank you.

  • You have to proceed by small steps. First, load the XML file in Processing (with loadStrings(), for example). Then parse it to extract information. Etc.
