This is a python project, that fetches definitions of words from urban dictionary's public API.

Future additions. PRs are always welcome :)
* Calculate ratio of `thumbs_up` and `thumbs_down` and decide the probability of a correct definition.

# Installation

*Python 3.9 or higher is required*

To install the library you can use the following command:

```
# Linux/MacOS
python3 -m pip install --upgrade python-urbandict

# Windows
py -3 -m pip install --upgrade python-urbandict
```

Or just try:

```
pip install python-urbandict
```

# Quick Example

You can create an instance of the `UrbanDict` class and pass a word to it. After that you can use the `search` method that will retrieve the definitions from UrbanDictionary.
If you want to you can also leave the word attribute empty, in which case a random word is selected by UrbanDictionary.

```python
from pyurbandict import UrbanDict

word = UrbanDict("python")
results = word.search()
print(results[0])

>>> Definition(
    word='python',
    definition='The best thing to happen to [Computer Science] students in a data and [file] structures or [algorithms] class.',
    example='Joe: "Man...I spent a week coding that [algorithm] in C."\r\nMoe: "I got it [done in one] evening with [Python]. It works great."\r\nJoe: "Say, what? Where can I download that?"',
