This example streams live tweets matching hashtags like #DoctorWho and #DrWho, saving each tweet’s metadata to a CSV file using the Twitter API and the `twitter` Python package. It demonstrates real-time data collection, extracting fields such as user location, follower count, and coordinates. The code handles truncated tweets by fetching extended text, and it cleans nested dictionary values with helper functions. No visualization is rendered; the focus is purely on acquiring and structuring streaming social media data for later analysis.
