CONSUMER_KEY = ''
CONSUMER_SECRET = ''

ACCESS_KEY = ''
ACCESS_SECRET = ''


auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET)
auth.set_access_token(ACCESS_KEY, ACCESS_SECRET)

api = tweepy.API(auth)

def start():
	a = raw_input ("\n Enter mentions or home or exit to quit :")

	if (a == "exit"):
		sys.exit(0)

	if (a == 'mentions'):
		mymentions = api.mentions() 		
		for tweet in mymentions:
			d = str(unicode(tweet.text).encode("utf-8"))+" >>  "+str(unicode(tweet.user.screen_name).encode("utf-8"))
			print d
	else:
		if (a.lower() == 'home'):
			home = api.home_timeline()
			for i in home:
				print i.text + " >> " + i.user.screen_name		
		else:
			api.update_status(a)
	
while(1):
	start()

•if i want to (Show all the mentions in the user timeline with a count of how many times each one occurred. )
how can i do it ?

@nadia2012

you want to see the frequency of how many times your handle is mentioned by a particular user?
