Abstract
Statistical analysis of a language is a vital part of natural language processing. In this paper, the statistical analysis of printed Hindi text is performed and then its comparison is done with the analysis already available with printed Punjabi text. Besides analysis of the characters frequency and word length analysis, a more useful unigram, bigram analysis is done. Miscellaneous analysis like Percentage occurrence of various grouped characters and number of distinct words and their coverage in Hindi and Punjabi Corpus is studied.
