Packages

0.1 Wordclouds

0.1.1 Load Data

Before importing, you should save your file as UNICODE UTF-8 or else you need to replace fancy punctuation yourself (using select, search, replace with simple, or space). This is perhaps easiest to do in a generic text editor like Notepad. For example: * fancy quote marks (fancy “ ” or ’ ’) * fancy en and em dashes (fancy – or —) * fancy ellipsis (fancy …) * fancy list characters (bullet lists) * and anything else fancy Also, it is easiest to remove URL (web links) yourself. Also, file must end with a blank line.

0.1.2 Clean the text data

This file was imported after saving in Word as UNICODE UTF-8

0.1.3 Create Corpus

0.1.4 Create TDM (term-document-matrix)

TDM is a Table of counts

Some words end up being too long (too many letters). You can remove such words with smaller maxLength

You can change minimum number of times for a word to be included with minFreq

You can change the total number of words in the cloud with maxTerms

0.1.5 Optional: Stemming

0.2 Stats (Bar Chart, Other)

You can increase number of bars with maxBars (but 20 is a good max for bar chart)
