Hey Guys! Welcome back to another brand new post of Sai Ansul's Blog. Today we are gonna find out How to make a Talking Virtual Friend using just 4 lines of code , yes you heard it right just 4 lines of code.

Lets divide this process in 3 steps

  • Create a project

First of all you need to a python interpreter for this project in your device.

First we need to import the kit we have installed.

import pyttsx3

Then in the second line you need to make a friend. For that you need to write this code.

friend = pyttsx3.init()

Then you can write just a code to make your friend say whatever you want.

friend.say("Hello Sai, I'm your talking virtual friend,you can make me speak whatever you want, your blogs are very interesting.")

Now you can replace the text.

And then, you can write this short code so the process is proper.

friend.runAndWait()
